Two bad things could have happened:
1) OSR entry failed. That's rare. You could try to put some logging in
prepareOSREntry.
2) The GC decided that it didn't want to keep your code around anymore. We
have heuristics for doing this even if your code doesn't OSR exit, and even
when the owning function is still live. The reason is that the generated
machine code may have pointers to the heap. If those objects are not otherwise
live, the GC has to either make them live (which could increase footprint) or
kill the DFG code block. It will often do the latter.
As Maciej suggests, a bug report would be great. We are always interested in
looking at programs where our heuristics fail.
