Did a search in the list, didn't find anything.

I have been hunting a memory leak for the past 3 days. Now i suspect 
that the memory allocated by JS_Enumerate() will not be release unless 
you call JS_DestroyIdArray(). So here's my questions:

1. Do I need to use JS_DestroyIdArray() to release the pointer returned 
by JS_Enumerate()?

2. It seems, if I don't use JS_DestroyIdArray() to release the pointer, 
the memory will not be released even after I destroy the context and 
runtime. Is that true?

3. If 2 is true, I think it is very easy for users to forget to call 
JS_DestroyIdArray(). At least the document should emphasis it.

4. Is there any other situation similar to this where I should use extra 
caution? I was really scared by this. :) It took my team 3 days to 
figure it out.

5. It would be nice to have a way to find out how much memory the 
runtime is using.

thanks.
