By default, it is not possible to trigger at V8 GC programatically.
Use of such an API is tricky and most of the time you will end up
slowing down instead of helping. For that reason, we have avoided
exposing GC through the API.
We do have a flag in V8 called expose-gc that adds a JavaScript gc(

If you followed the instructions in chromium (http://dev.chromium.org/

The order was wrong, I just changed it. You need to install in the

Hi,
Is it possible to trigger JavaScript Garbage collection

I am looking for ways to minimize memory usage for each page loaded.
So I am thinking to invoke V8 garbage collection after page load

Thank you.

Correct. This is part of implementing the "kill a worker" part of the
WebWorker specification:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-workers/current-work/#kill-a-worker
The intent is to shutdown workers silently when appropriate, but this
currently relies on the worker thread eventually returning to the
An infinite running script in a worker should be a valid use case.
Computing Pi to the infiniteth digit is actually the first example in the
worker spec, IIRC.
So this would just kill/timeout shared workers that no longer are connected
to any active pages, right?

You want undo-close-tab for that use case, not history. The where-to-open
behavior of undo-close-tab is completely different. Agreed that there's some
overlap in usage, though.

I would argue this does fall in the domain of something gyp should be able

I landed changes to the script and gclient which should make it clobber the

My issue is the following:
The task messenger in Chromium (Linux) does not kill tabs when a

Just to throw in another suggestion (that I hope hasn't come up or been
implied so far):
The way I see it, the themes you visited/installed are part of your history,
so why not spruce up the history page and include visited themes there
directly, with "Theme" as a semantic annotation. In this way
P.S.
I'm using Chromium Linux build 23024 from Daily Chromium builds Ubuntu PPA.
