Bug 146536 – Web Inspector: Aggregate profile call information on the backend to drastically reduce profile sizes

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Web Inspector

[Joseph Pecoraro]

* SUMMARY
Aggregate profile call information on the backend to drastically reduce profile sizes.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open <https://www.apple.com/procurement/>
2. Open Inspector
3. On page, click "Responsible Supplier Management" link to navigate
  => WebKit crashes

* NOTES
- The backend builds a 500+MB string for profile data
- Namely because one function calls (1) trim 1.7 million times, (2) substring 1.7 million times, and (3) indexOf 0.8 million times
- The profile data includes a serialization for each of those individual calls, which is almost entirely unnecessary for the UI

Might just want to synthesize callInfo in the future on the front end to avoid complexity.

It broke the Apple Windows build.

Thanks for the heads up. The bots show:

> c:\cygwin\home\buildbot\slave\win-debug\build\source\webcore\inspector\TimelineRecordFactory.cpp(212): error C2039: 'CPUProfileNodeAggregateCallInfo' : is not a member of 'Inspector::Protocol::Timeline' [C:\cygwin\home\buildbot\slave\win-debug\build\Source\WebCore\WebCore.vcxproj\WebCore.vcxproj]
> c:\cygwin\home\buildbot\slave\win-debug\build\source\webcore\inspector\TimelineRecordFactory.cpp(212): error C2065: 'CPUProfileNodeAggregateCallInfo' : undeclared identifier [C:\cygwin\home\buildbot\slave\win-debug\build\Source\WebCore\WebCore.vcxproj\WebCore.vcxproj]

Seems like Windows didn't update regenerate some files even though Timeline.json was modified? I'm going to try forcing a clean build on these bots.

And the other bot:

Seems like more issues with file generation. Not sure what is up there.

[Joseph Pecoraro]

One of the bots recovered on their own:
https://build.webkit.org/builders/Apple%20Win%20Debug%20%28Build%29/builds/89286 Failed
https://build.webkit.org/builders/Apple%20Win%20Debug%20%28Build%29/builds/89287 Success

I still forced a clean build on the other bot (Win Release) to try and fix it up.
