This is a heads up of the following change: In bug 1063816 we are tracking to rename useCount to the more appriopiate name of warmupCounter.
The purpose of this count(er) still stays the same, but the name now says exactly what this number does. It is a warmupCounter deciding when Baseline and IonMonkey can kick in. And this counter gets reset when we think there should be some stabilization period before IonMonkey/Baseline can kick in again. The old name has been used for a long time and intern we have grown very accustome to it. Even so accustome we don't actually see it can cause confusion for newer people. This rename makes it easier for new people to understand what this does. At the same time usesBeforeCompile and usesBeforeInlining etc will change to ionWarmUpThreshold and baselineWarmUpThreshold. _______________________________________________ dev-tech-js-engine-internals mailing list dev-tech-js-engine-internals@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-js-engine-internals
