[webkit-dev] number of wrapped objects in JSC

Hey,

I intend to add a graph in the inspector's timeline panel that shows the
number of global handles for V8. The V8 bindings use maps for WebCore
objects to global handles to V8 wrapper objects. A steady increase of
global handles is often a sign of a memory leak within v8 bindings.

My question to the JSC folks is, is there a similar counter in JSC? I.e.
something that corresponds to the number of wrapped WebCore objects (and
potentially other objects that are kept alive without necessarily being
reachable from javascript)?

thanks
