Testing memory leaks in Chrome DevTools (after several attach/detach the jQuery plugin) I have found that there are some delta objects but I can't understand their nature:
What is feedback_cell
about which reports DevTools? I do not have such identifier in my code (here BsMultiSelect.js).
Line number points to method definition: function staticContentGenerator(...) {
I guess the feedback_cell
is something from internal js structures, but I can't find anything about it.
How to deal with such traces?
Got the same question, but this article helped me to understand what is feedback_cell

TLDR;
How do feedback vectors affect memory investigations?
They are a red herring and if you see a feedback_cell in the retainer list that you are investigating, you can safely assume this specific retainer list is not the cause of the leak.
You can think of feedback vectors are soft references and hence it is safe to ignore them as a cause of a memory leak.
