Here's a leak report from Tomcat (thank you!):
** filed 15 mlk bugs over past week, one regression {{bug|421150}}, 12 P2 blockers
 
** {{bug|421703}} is first using leak gauge - not sure if it needs to block? already fixed?
New Leak Bugs:
** {{bug|421835}} found on trunk clicking around in the new Add-on Manager, reproducible in 75 % of the tests; not sure it needs to block
 
** all other nominated bugs are add-on related, including 2 new Extension nsGlobalWindows Leaks.
-> Filed 15 leak bugs since last week (alone 12 since Saturday :) with one Leak Regression.(Bug Bug 421150)..
** Seems with this more and more compatible Firefox 3 Extensions we get also more and more Leak Reports. A little sad are comments like this from irc" a friend of a friend is saying that Firefox 2 uses less memory/cpu than Firefox 3 for him with a few extensions loaded".In this case 4 Extensions were installed and 2 of them are already on my Leak Buglist :-/  seems there is still a lot of work left here...
Most of them are triaged by drivers (many thanks Damon) and 5 Bugs are now left on the Nomination List.
** Will start next week to work with Mark Finkle on Docs and Blog Posts for Extension Devs and AMO Editors (Best Practice, Leak Tests with Leak Gauge etc).
 
** Jesse mentioned yesterday that we maybe need a Meta Leak Bug for Extension Leaks, using {{bug|402335}} for now
For https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=421703 i'm not sure if this really blocking. This Leak was found when i run Leak Gauge with the Beta 4 RC2 to test the respinned PGO Build. So its my first Leak Gauge Log/bug, peter/ben/jonas can you take a look here at the leak gauge output Maybe this leak is already fixed ?
 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=421835 was found on trunk during hammering (clicking around in the new Add-on Manager).  Maybe its also not blocking and more wanted 1.9.x since it was only reproducible in 75 % of the tests. Also i think most of the people use the Add-on Manager only to install something and not to click around :-)
 
All other nominated bugs are Extension Related. And found also 2 new Extension nsGlobalWindows Leaks.
 
Blocking Leak Bug List contains 12 P2 Bugs.
 
Seems with this more and more compatible Firefox 3 Extensions we get also more and more Leak Reports. A little sad are comments like this from irc" a friend of a friend is saying that Firefox 2 uses less memory/cpu than Firefox 3 for him with a few extensions loaded".In this case 4 Extensions were installed and 2 of them are already on my Leak Buglist :-/  seems there is still a lot of work left here...

*Extension Leak Bugs:*
 
Jesse mentioned yesterday that we maybe need a Meta Leak Bug for Extension Leaks. I think for my Leak Project its a little too late and so i think we should keep "my" meta Bug 402335 as Tracking for Leaks I (QA)  found, but we maybe should file a new Extension Leak Bug for the Leaks that are found by the AMO-Editor Team ? Actually i know that they have started to use Leak Gauge, but i have no idea where they file the bugs. Any suggestions/thoughts ?
 
Thats all :-) Will go and find some more leaks now :-)  -Tomcat
