Memory leak in Google Play Books

Reported by stsh...@gmail.com, May 20 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 7978.76.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.104 Safari/537.36

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Load book in Google Play Books
2. Read, select and highlight text, turn pages 

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Memory usage of the book tab increases dramatically and Chromebook slows down. When loading the tab, usage is ~200,000K. After a 10 minutes of activity, it balloons to 700,000K then 1,000,000K then beyond, and pages are very slow to turn. Reloading gets it back to 200,000K.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A 

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.104  Channel: stable
OS Version: 7978.76.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

I think the culprit may be highlighting text; after I do that the memory usage seems to start climbing fairly rapidly. But not sure.

Thanks filling this issue but not reproduced on M54.
memory usage maximum ~370,000K after reading and selecting some text in 10 minutes.
No issue on turning pages also.

tested on Chrome:54.0.2840.10/ChromeOS:8743.8.0-samus. 

Please reopen with device name if still see this issue.
