When connect() throws (either from a ConnectError or a rejected waitFor), the onFfiEvent listener registered on the global FfiClient singleton was never removed. This prevents the Room from being GC'd and causes preConnectEvents to grow unboundedly because the handler keeps pushing events into a Room that never finished connecting. Wrap the connect logic in try/catch so the listener and stale preConnectEvents are cleaned up on any error path.

Room.connect()fails, theonFfiEventlistener registered on the globalFfiClientsingleton is never removed. This causes two problems:FfiClientholds a reference tothis.onFfiEvent, which closes over the Room.preConnectEventsgrows unboundedly becauseonFfiEventkeeps pushing everyFfiEventinto the array — the guard!this.localParticipant || !this.ffiHandle || !this.infois always true for a Room that never finished connecting.connect()on the same Room multiplies the leak, since each failed attempt adds another copy of the listener.The fix wraps the connect logic in a
try/catchso that on any error (whether fromwaitForrejection or theConnectErrorthrown on the'error'case), we:onFfiEventlistener fromFfiClientpreConnectEventsarrayThe listener is intentionally not removed on the success path — it must stay attached for the room to function normally.
