Steps to reproduce

Open the reproduction link
Click on Remove child from 1
Find CompMarker in Memory snapshot

What is expected?

It is expected to allow for garbage collector to collect CompMarker object after v-if expression evaluates to false.

What is actually happening?

CompMarker object is found in JS heap. The weird thing is that when v-if outcome is changed to false from other component (click on Remove child from 2), the CompMarker is removed from heap.
