           Summary: push/shift fifo may consume excessive memory
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: barraclough at apple.com


Array object commonly store data in a vector, consisting of a portion that is in use, a pre-capacity (m_indexBias) and a post-capacity (the delta between m_length and m_vectorLength).  Calls to shift with grow the pre-capacity, and the current algorithm for increaseVectorLength (used by push, or [[Put]]) will never shrink the pre-capacity, so a push/shift fifo may consume an inordinate amount of memory, whilst having a relatively small active length.
