Description Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2010-07-14 16:43:12 EDT 
The UAElement class in the help system contains an object "element" of type org.w3c.dom.Element which gets copied around when UAElements are copied. The element is only used in a handful of places, most of the time it is not used after it is copied. This causes a lot of excess memory to be consumed and probably also has a negative impact on speed of Toc and Index assembly.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
