Hi, these are good separable parts which can easily run on custom threads. When TCmalloc is enabled, scavenger thread preiodically relases memory back to the system. You can disable scavenger thread in JavaScriptCore/wtf/FastMalloc.cpp:103 USE_BACKGROUND_THREAD_TO_SCAVENGE_MEMORY 0 You can disable ICONDATABASE in JavaScriptCore/wtf/Platform.h as well.
