Summary Watchdog timer should be lazily allocated
Mark Hahnenberg
Reported 2014-05-20 14:01:00 PDT
We incur a noticeable amount of overhead on some benchmarks due to checking if the Watchdog ever fired. There is no reason to do this checking if we never activated the Watchdog, which can only be done through JSContextGroupSetExecutionTimeLimit or JSContextGroupClearExecutionTimeLimit. By allocating the Watchdog lazily on the VM we can avoid all of the associated overhead when we don't use these two API functions (which is true of most clients).
