Platform/2008-Q4-Goals

XPCOM+XPConnect

• Map out allocator strategy: if XPCOMGC+Boehm, then:
  • Fragementation improvements in Boehm allocator
  • Make spidermonkey use the new GC
  • Make content GCed instead of refcounted, remove cycle-collector, and make xpconnect aware of GCed nodes (probably longer than a 3-month goal)

Content

• Enable tracing of simple DOM methods

JS

• tracing: no known regressions and on by default

Toolkit

• Process-per-tab/Windows protected mode...?

Build System

• Finish the spidermonkey standalone build system
• Get the spidermonkey unit tests running as part of TUnit
• hgweb improvements?
