I suspect this is a problem in gjs not running the GC when it should.

Can anyone try gjs with the following patches?
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gjs/commit/?id=06aa616a8c9b6d356aefc95a6b0c1c317b86c46a
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gjs/commit/?id=54d60c278a39ce681b35d172b675a4b2d4449b65

They should improve the leaky situation a lot.
