Web Inspector: switch heap profiler front-end to separate storage of nodes and edges

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

[Yury Semikhatsky]

We are going to split snapshot into separate arrays of nodes and edges on the front-end. Then switch heap profiler front-end to the two new arrays. And after that the snapshot format is going to be changed so that the nodes and edges arrive in two separate arrays.

retainedNodePosition?

I would call the functions _beginEdgeIndex and _endEdgeIndex.

typo: *divide* node offset

May be name it retainerOrdinal?

We used to have an extra element in these arrays to avoid such conditionals. Why not to have one extra item in _firstRetainerIndex and set it to _retainingEdges.length. wdyt?

Why _edgesCountOffset? Do you use it to store first edge index. Can we rename it or at least make an alias.

Renamed to retainedNodeOrdinal

Good point. Done.

Yes, it is now also used to store first containment edge index. Will add an alias.
