Hi, I've just finished a major overhaul of our documentation about memory-related tools. We used to have two main pages on this topic:
- https://wiki.mozilla.org/Performance:Leak_Tools - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/Debugging_memory_leaks There was some overlap between the pages, the ordering was confusing, some of the information was out-of-date, and wiki.m.o isn't the right place for this information. Both of these pages now just contain a single link to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Performance, which has a new section "Memory profiling and leak detection tools" with links to pages for all of our tools: - about:memory - DMD - areweslimyet.com - BloatView - Refcount tracing and balancing - GC and CC logs - Valgrind - LSAN - Apple tools - TraceMalloc - Leak Gauge These pages contain cleaned-up content mostly from the two links mentioned above. There is also a page on "Leak-hunting strategies and tips" which contains a mish-mash of things from the two links that didn't fit neatly into any of the tool-specific pages. If you use any of these tools, please take a look at the docs and check them for correctness. Some of the documentation is old and probably wrong, especially in the "Leak-hunting strategies and tips". Please ask me if you have any questions. There's also this page, which is B2G specific: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Debugging/Debugging_OOMs. I've kept that separate for now, and it's not mentioned in the "Memory profiling and leak detection tools" section. Thanks. Nick _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
