destroy function call takes up 35s - jQuery 3.1.1

[Legends]

This issue is tied to jQuery 3.1.1

This issue does not happen with jQuery 2.1.1 or at least it's not that recognizable.

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it when using jsFiddle..., but what I know is, that when I change the jQuery version back to 2.1.1 it works again!

I have a SPA app, which uses sparkline.
I have a page 22 sparkline charts on page.
Before leaving this page, I call $(".sparkline").sparkline('destroy');

I spotted two operations that take a long time:

$(this).html() && !options.get('disableHiddenCheck') && $(this).is(':hidden')) || !$(this).parents('body').length

and

render.call(this);

I captured the time for each iteration for each of the two statements.
Both are increasing over time!
