            Bug ID: 151585
           Summary: [JSC] Run concurrent JIT in separate process?
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: peavo at outlook.com

Just a thought: since most systems nowadays have multiple cores, wouldn't it make sense performance-wise to run concurrent code generation in separate processes, instead of threads?
Or maybe the overhead of starting processes are too big? I guess sharing data between the processes also might be an issue :)
