pouchdb and couchbase sync gateway

I have this structure

Couchbase server <---> couch sync gateway <---> pouchdb

and I have 4 databases every local database is sync to remote and every remote db is sync to local, syncing is live. When I load the page syncing starts, but every second I have a lot of errors in console log

enter image description here

these errors use a lot of memory (my chrome tab uses about 800 Mb of memory after 20 minutes) How can i prevent this? The problem is that in my javascript my config is

var syncOptions = {
    live: true,
    retry: true
};
var localDB = new PouchDB("building");
var remoteDB = new PouchDB("http://xxx.azure.com:4984/building");
localDB.sync(remoteDB, syncOptions);

If I set "retry" value to false there are no problems, but live sync doesn't work, if I set "retry" value to true my page generates about 4 error every second (because I'm syncing 4 databases) What can I do? Thanks

EDIT

I'm using pouchdb-5.4.1.js

As the console suggests, these are not errors (I mean, they are, but, that is perfectly normal.) Why this happens is because PouchDB is not officially supported by Couchbase sync Gateway. So, to make it support in an effective manner, PouchDB creates its own milestones on the Couchbase server. Typically you should be seeing a lot of errors on the path "_local", "_bulk_get" and "_all_docs". That is because of problems with integration between Couchbase Sync Gateway and PouchDB. But, you've got nothing to worry about if you've written your sync function properly. It should get the job done, albeit, not as effectively as we want.
