Bug 41617 – Make JS memory stats available via 'Performance' object (Web Timing).

• Component: Web Inspector (Deprecated)
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Mikhail Naganov]

It seems like a more natural place than 'console'.

[Sam Weinig]

As I have noted elsewhere, I do not think we should have this functionality exposed to the web.

patch

That sounds like an R- to me.

[Pavel Feldman]

Here is the plan:
1) Move console.memory and console.profiles from console.* to window.performance
2) Do not expose this information unless explicitly allowed with the command line flag
3) Extend WebTiming (performance) spec and make sure we conform to the apis there. If not allowed, we would return 0.

We need this API to be page-facting. We are not necessarily interested in having it web-facing. It can be behind the flag. The use-case here is that web developers run their continuous builds on browsers and get the memory / profiling stats for regression testing. We have a number of large-scale web app builders interested in the feature.

memory stats population is now controlled by a preference, turned off by default

    	Make JS memory stats available via 'Performance' object (Web Timing).
    	This statistics is populated only if 'WebKitMemoryInfoEnabled'
    	preference is set.
    
    	'console.memory' is kept until Web Timing object becomes visible by
    	default (currently it is hidden under compile-time flag).  These stats
    	are guarded with the same preference.

Is it possible to make this EnabledAtRuntime based on whether WebKitMemoryInfoEnabled is set? It would be nice to avoid having it there with zeros when the preference is disabled.

[Mikhail Naganov]

Tony, the current behavior is intentional, see Pavel's comment (#4). This will prevent getting exceptions about undefined properties in code that uses them.

Gotcha. I'm not sure I agree with that approach because any real code would want to check for their presence before accessing them (since it isn't a standard yet). But it isn't that big of a deal. If anything, perhaps keeping them there advertises that a feature might exist and prompts developers to search for it and find the flag.
