Quick Answer
Prevent memory leaks in dashboards: remove event listeners when removing dashboard panels ($panel.off().remove()), clear intervals and timeouts on panel destruction, destroy jQuery plugins explicitly (if the plugin has a destroy method), avoid storing DOM references in long-lived JavaScript objects, and use Chrome DevTools Memory tab with heap snapshots to detect growing detached trees.
Answer
Remove events using .off(). Clear timers. Destroy plugin instances before reinitializing. Cleanup detached DOM references.
