Comment #7 on issue 847 by broofa: 1gb memory limit http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=847
Slightly off topic, but rumor on the street is that Node.js's Buffer objects are allocated outside the V8 memory space. If that's the case - and it appears to be (https://github.com/ry/node/blob/master/src/node_buffer.cc#L192) - than this may not be as big an issue as I'd thought.
This likely holds true for other node modules that wrap native C APIs (e.g. redis/memcached)... so maybe this isn't that big a deal.
Thoughts, anyone? -- v8-dev mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-dev
