At present, a JS shell built as part of a browser build uses jemalloc, but a JS shell built stand-alone (by running js/src/configure directly) does not use jemalloc.
I'd like to change the JS shell build process to use jemalloc in both cases. This should make the allocator behavior SM hackers see more consistent with that in the browser. It will also make writing tests for devtools that measure memory consumption a bit easier. I've filed a bug for this idea: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1134039 _______________________________________________ dev-tech-js-engine-internals mailing list dev-tech-js-engine-internals@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-js-engine-internals
