Does not release memory when many changing media source

[doocaat]

Description

In SPA web application(angular 7), I use video.js to play media in m3u8 format.
The application allows the user to frequently change the media source, but when the media source changes, memory leaks.
See http://jsfiddle.net/eb5nvw6f/1/ after some time, a memory leak is noticeable.

Results

Expected

Actual

Memory increase and repeat too many times memory leak

We are constantly on the look out for memory leaks and fix them when we find them (we merged videojs/http-streaming#788 recently).
Also, we're going to be dedicating some time specifically for looking at memory issues in the coming weeks as well.
