Imagine a scenario where we have a webpage with two buttons: create and destroy. By clicking the create button, the Three.js scene in this memory test is dynamically added to the page and starts running. On the other hand, clicking the destroy button should remove the scene, deallocate all buffers, and free up memory resources.
Is there a way to achieve this without using frames or altering the URL?
Thank you.
In my opinion, it is important to remember to use the dispose() method within geometry, material, and texture.
geometry.dispose();
material.dispose();
texture.dispose();

In the world of programming languages, JavaScript stands out as a garbage-collected one. This means that when you no longer need a specific object, such as an old scene, the memory it occupies will be cleared up unless there is a glitch in the system. From what I can tell, the page you referenced appears to be functioning properly.
I struggled with this issue for a while, reaching out to Chrome and Three.js with bug reports but finding no solution.
It appears that memory was not being released even after an extended period of time, indicating that something was still referencing the memory block and preventing the garbage collector from freeing it up.
Fortunately, I discovered a workaround that proved effective for me:
By following this approach, I successfully reclaimed over 600MB of RAM from my Three.js scene.
UPDATE:
In response to Mr. Doob and WestLangley's suggestion in this thread about memory leaks in Three.js when handling numerous shapes, I have yet to test their advice with my own code.
If you are using WebGLRenderer, consider adding the following steps after removing a mesh with `scene.remove( mesh )`:
- Deallocte the memory with `renderer.deallocateObject( mesh );`
- You can also deallocate textures with `renderer.deallocateTexture( texture );`
