Comment #16 on issue 20067 by [email protected]: Canvas - memory leaks on getImageData http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20067
Both the originally reported case (http://alteredqualia.com/visualization/evolve/) and smaller repro html work fine w/ most recent build of Chromium. So I cannot reproduce it on my box. Could you reproduce the crash for those sites on your box? Please, notice that memory will grow to ~256M and only when get shrinked. Regarding "One would expect the garbage collector to know to reclaim the memory of the discarded ImageData buffers on each new assignment. As the original report states: Firefox does this correctly." That is a correct assumption for refcounting GC, V8 doesn't work that way. "Chrome 4's JavaScript engine appears to be even faster than previous versions. I get about twice the framerate as on firefox."---thanks a lot, that's really important for us. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
