Yes, but without any of the session history, meaning substantially  
fewer pages being kept in the cache.  Growth in memory over time  
doesn't necessarily indicate a leak in something like a browser that  
is constantly pulling in a lot of data and trying to keep some subset  
of it available for responsiveness.  You shouldn't be concerned  
unless you are seeing unbounded growth over long periods of time.   
That's not to say there aren't any leaks, but I doubt that more than  
a very small fraction of your usage, if that, is due to leaks.
