[webkit-dev] strategy for evaluating performance issues related to memory.

[Mike Marchywka]

So where does this stand right now? I hope to actually contribute at some point.
but right now  I'm just trying to determine approaches to even finding the problems.
( and yes my disk light still comes on for minutes at a time locking me out of doing antyhing
with iceweasel or firefox)

I guess at a gross level it would be nice to know when and why page faults occur
but a more pro-active approach would be to start understanding the memory
needs during design or code examination for other reasons. If there is nothing
better, perhaps people could put in formatted comments about memory needs
and access patterns and various parameters or issues or assumptions that
in the code. I haven't entirely thought this through  (duh) and hope to stimulate
a discussion ( actually I'd be happy if someone had a one line answer or link
to an answer but am not that opitmistic).

I would approach this as an  addition to finding memory leaks but maybe the 
worst offenders will go away if there is less clutter.


Thanks.
