Detailed Problem Description

When calling getAuth at top level module (not in a loop) the performance tabs show events being added infiitely by batch of 2 every second.

This looks like some sort of heartbeat that does not clean up correctly.

Steps and code to reproduce issue

import { getAuth } from "firebase/auth"

const auth = getAuth()

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Hi @mbret, thanks for submitting this issue. Could you please share the full event logs, and highlight which are coming from the Firebase JS SDK? I am not able to observe this behaviour from my test app with getAuth().

[mbret]

I'm not sure how to find this in the performance tab or memory tab. If I make a blank page and record memory footprint we might be able to pinpoint it. I will try tomorrow.

This is likely related to #6082 and not a concern.

Since we can manually trigger the GC I will try to do a repro and do it to see if it effectively get GC or not. Thanks for the linked issue, it seems like it is likely related indeed.
