New issue 24469 by [email protected]: Provide method to reduce as much  
V8 memory usage as possible
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24469

V8 has a couple different functions to reduce memory:

Heap::IdleNotification()
Heap::CollectAllGarbage()

In my MemoryPurger class, I want to be able to have V8 dump as much memory
as possible.  Right now I'm calling IdleNotification() in a loop.  Ivan and
James were looking at the implementation and wondering if that would
actually be effective -- maybe it needs to do more mark/sweeps before a
mark/compact, or maybe multiple compacts, or maybe spin some event loop
between compacts, or whatever.

Resolving this bug consists of changing code if needed and then giving me
instructions on what to do as a consumer to direct V8 to reduce to the
minimum possible footprint.
