Why does angularjs cause multiple comments in between render data? Inspecting DOM childNodes causes extra nodes which takes up memory. Is there a way to remove them?

This is annoying to me as I find the need to do this angular.element(document.getElementById('modal')).append($compile(templates[type])(scope)); then try and remove the stuff that got added except that its no longer so clean and easy. I am so annoyed that I have to revert to javascript directly to manipulate the dom for dynamic templates, it is wrong keeps feeling wrong but it seems there is no other way.landed– landed2015-06-09 08:05:28 +00:00Commented Jun 9, 2015 at 8:05

Angular uses the comments do figure out where the last element was placed in relation. It's here in the source code https://github.com/angular/angular.js/commit/9efa46ae640cde17487c341daa9a75c0bd79da02
The comments are written client-side so there's no impact on transfer, and if your application is that memory conservative, Angular is probably the wrong language to use in the first place.

I find these comments annoying too. You can turn off the content of them though. Just set debugInfoEnabled to false in the config:
$compileProvider.debugInfoEnabled(false);
