> The define is poorly named, however

I agree.

> I wonder if it really needs to make it all the way out to JavaScriptCore/config.h.

I think it’s inconvenient that it’s there. It would be nice if it wasn’t.

> Also not all changes to tcmalloc are guarded by this flag.

Also a good point.

> Do you think that there is something worth doing here or should we close this bug?

I think it’s worth finding out if we are getting any value from having our changes wrapped in #if now. If we’re not, it might be nice to reduce the noise and complexity by removing this.

I think the real question is who would know the answer to that. Who has recently dealt with comparing with the “real” TCMalloc or importing a new version of it into our source tree? I cc’d a few people who might know.
