This PR essentially reverts #11752. As lovely as that PR was, it brought back the memory leak that #11197 solved. I should have noticed this when I reviewed the PR.
Essentially, the culprit is this #11752 (review). We cannot do this as it means we will retain references to DOM elements that might have been removed or changed from some other effect within. The memory leak is bad too, as we just end up retaining everything.
We can maybe come up with a nicer cleanup after this, but I want to remove this memory leak first.
If you'd like a repro case, render an each block with a few thousand elements. Then update and remove them all, notice how we retain all the each block elements in the parent effect because they're referenced in its
effect.dom
array.
