Comment #1 on issue 23400 by [email protected]: Flush everything we can from memory on suspend/sleep http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=23400
About tcmalloc: When you alloc and then free pages via tcmalloc, tcmalloc does not actually return the pages to the operating system. It keeps them on free lists so that it can reuse them (since presumably the application is likely to need them again). Periodically, tcmalloc does release them on its own. But, when we're about to suspend, we should flush everything and force tcmalloc to clean everything up. Anton is working on code which does this, so calling it should be easy. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
