I think looking at performance is the right thing to do. Please try to use
the GetMirror API in the code in V8Proxy.cpp, before adding devtools
specific functions to the V8 debugger API. Remember that you can compile the
JavaScript function taking the FunctionMirror object once. If using the
mirror has a performance overhead then maybe providing more direct access to
the script/line for a function on the FunctionMirror could solve the
problem.

If more features are needed in the debugger API I think the API should be
more general, like providing a full mirror like API.

Søren
