Issue 129: Memory consumption hyperoscillations http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=129
Comment #16 by kmillikin: Hi Victor, I'll try to take a quick look on Monday. We could definitely use more comprehensive heap profiling tools (that would be a great project for a contributor...). Fixed arrays are used for the backing store of JS objects and arrays, as well as some other V8 internal data structures. The core dump mentioned in comment 15 is expectable. Most normal operations on objects are unsafe during a full (mark/sweep or mark/compact) collection. This is because we mark objects as live by changing their "map" field, which is the hidden class that used used for all type-dispatched operations in the system. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
