Hi, I saw a lot of paches about changing the memory allocation behaviour of JavaScriptCore, and would like to start a discussion about the long term purpose of these changes. If I understand corectly, the aim is to limit the memory consumption of JavaScripCore to a certain level, and keep the browser alive when a bad code tries to allocate a huge memory area and the browser forced to crash (is it?).
In practice we could build a sandbox around JavaScriptCore (maybe one for each page) and keep every allocation there isn'it? This pobably mmap-ed region could be used by ExecutableAllocator, GarbageCollector, and by other regular allocations. I also saw a patch about moving garbage collector, that is also an interesting area.
