Undetectable memory leak in vuejs application

I've been trying to resolve this problem for a while now, I even gave it a shot to rewrite the entire program but without success. The application is running on VueJS 2.3.3 and is supposed to be running on Chromium in combination with a Raspberry Pi (irrelevant information, for now).

We're working with several components which are being included in a single file, later on this file will be compiled using either gulp or npm run dev. When the instance of VueJS initializes, a request will be send using Vue Resource's $http option. This'll receive a json response with a size of around 30mb. This'll be saved in the data array, as seen here:

this.$http.get('<url>' + this.token)
    .then((response) => {
        this.properties = response.properties;
    });

This data will later on be used for further actions, another thing that is worth mentioning is that the data is being refreshed every once in a while. Which is where I think the problem occurs, if I'm not refreshing the data every 5 minutes (can be longer too, really depends on the way I'm testing) the program runs fine. It's just that I want to refresh the data every once in a while to retrieve new information. The way of setting a timeout which I'm using is as following:

this.dataTimeout = setTimeout(this.refreshData, 300000); 

Each (so called) property has at least 6 base64 images saved in it's JSON, which are later used to present to the user. Besides that, there is a name, address, and some other tiny bits of data. It doesn't sound all that wrong but I'm getting the feeling that each response makes the memory grow so intense that even a desktop is getting trouble running it.

Each 10 seconds a new property will be presented on the user's screen including the images, street, location, etc. I'm not sure if there is a memory leak in my code or if I'm forgetting something. A few questions pop up in my head:

1. Do I need to reset the response I'm getting from the server back to null or undefined?
2. Could there be a leak in one of the plugins I'm using (Just VueResources)?
3. For how long can a VueJS instance stay alive, is there any recommended time to reload the entire program?
4. What thinks should I take in consideration in order to achieve this at all?

I've taken out the data renewal and put a demo project online, this can be seen right here. The main problem I'm having is that the browser just runs out of memory and shows us the amazing Aw snap! page from Chrome. I tried taking snapshots from the memory usage but it all seems fine, it just explodes randomly after a while.
