Dear chromers!

Do we have some notification mechanism for low memory event?

If not, are you fine if I add it?  It would be completely optional and
I would only implement it for tcmalloc (most probably invoking before
TCMalloc_SystemAlloc another block).

If you're interested in details.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16821 is due to
retaining WebKit objects due to no GC---allocation rate in V8 heaps is
ways lower than allocation in tcmalloc heap and thus we die.  The idea
is to use this callback to trigger callback.

Mads says that we have something like that for Android already.

yours,
anton.
