Comment #4 on issue 729 by [email protected]: V8's preemption mechanism
(Locker::StartPreemption()) is broken
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=729
Over a year later this is still the same.
I did some tests, even with "--preemption" I get the following number of
seconds before a context switch:
105
6
39
80
107
53
500
18
536
44
127
148
6
18
811
144
12
31
3
95
441
Which is on average 158 seconds.
I'm guessing the idea of context switching has been replaced by Isolates.
