Benjamin Smedberg

The XPCOMGC project is designed to unify memory management between the DOM and the JS engine.

20 min - bsmedberg will give a short presentation on current status and progress 40 min - discussion of current topics, including

  • jemalloc+gc
  • non-cyclical DOM ownership?
  • the use or non-use of DRC
  • incremental and generational collection and enforcing write barriers

Some of these topics will undoubtedly spill into later ad-hoc sessions
