Chrome browser tab page consumes lots of memory

Actions before raising this issue

• I searched the existing issues and did not find anything similar.
• I read/searched the docs

Steps to Reproduce

After opening and closing several annotation jobs, the memory consumption rises from several hundred MBs (e.g., 200MB) to several GBs (e.g., 4GB).

Expected Behavior

The memory consumption does not enlarge when switching to another annotation job on the same tab page.

Possible Solution

After manually refreshing the tab page, the memory consumption drops to several hundred MBs.

From code level we can't enforce JS garbage collector to be called.
Does it increase memory consumption infinitely until crashing Chrome tab?

[zldrobit]

Yes, the browser crashed after the memory consumption went up to more than 10GB. Closing the crashed tab page, the browser works again.
