It would be particularly useful to expose GPU stats and counters, e.g. memory usage and limits (particularly if memory was exhausted), texture unit counts, average frame times There are a good number of useful values reported by the Chrome rendering benchmarks: http://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/rendering-benchmarks - it would be great if these could be more formally exposed through DevTools

More context: An additional view for the DevTools timeline, alongside memory, frames and events which shows, over time, the resource usage by the GPU. It would be useful to see in there records regarding GPU memory exhaustion or missed frames.

Chromium and V8 have left the building. Won't fix.
