Memory leak due to animation of variable font

Does this work in other browsers? No
 I don't know what I'm doing but I made this variable font demo page: https://www.curtismann.org/variablefonts/ and it's causing memory leaks in Chrome and Firefox. Some nice people over at Bugzilla have been looking into it:

I can confirm that there seems to be a problem with animating web fonts, at least on OSX.
