obj->compartment() now gets the compartment from the ObjectGroup instead of the Shape/BaseShape. BaseShape::compartment_ is currently only used for some assertions and memory reporting stuff, and we can remove it. We can then also move the property tree and (Base)Shape maps from the compartment to the zone. This lets us effectively share (Base)Shapes across all compartments within that zone. What's a bit unfortunate is that accessor shapes store getter and setter JSObjects. That still works fine, but because a JSObject belongs to a single compartment, it means these shapes and all their descendants can't be shared with other compartments. (The branch of the Shape tree becomes compartment-local.) Still, there are many Shapes that *can* be shared, for instance the initial/empty shapes. There's also an issue with BaseShape tracing: it currently also traces compartment_->global, probably to keep the compartment alive. I think/hope we can move that code to ObjectGroup tracing. With a prototype patch that passes shell tests, I get the following results (assuming I didn't mess up the memory reporting bits): * Simple HTML page (example.com): Content process before: │ │ └──2,024,664 B (14.58%) -- shapes │ │ ├──1,708,024 B (12.30%) -- gc-heap │ │ │ ├──1,358,512 B (09.79%) ── tree │ │ │ ├────238,992 B (01.72%) ── dict │ │ │ └────110,520 B (00.80%) ── base │ │ └────316,640 B (02.28%) -- malloc-heap │ │ ├──139,552 B (01.01%) ── tree-kids │ │ ├───91,936 B (00.66%) ── dict-tables │ │ └───85,152 B (00.61%) ── tree-tables Content process after: │ ├──1,645,752 B (12.03%) -- shapes │ │ ├──1,350,968 B (09.88%) -- gc-heap │ │ │ ├──1,088,552 B (07.96%) ── tree │ │ │ ├────238,992 B (01.75%) ── dict │ │ │ └─────23,424 B (00.17%) ── base │ │ └────294,784 B (02.15%) -- malloc-heap │ │ ├──116,448 B (00.85%) ── tree-kids │ │ ├───92,448 B (00.68%) ── dict-tables │ │ └───85,888 B (00.63%) ── tree-tables Parent process before: │ │ └───9,684,800 B (16.22%) -- shapes │ │ ├──7,934,624 B (13.29%) -- gc-heap │ │ │ ├──6,117,584 B (10.25%) ── tree │ │ │ ├──1,307,720 B (02.19%) ── dict │ │ │ └────509,320 B (00.85%) ── base │ │ └──1,750,176 B (02.93%) -- malloc-heap │ │ ├────657,280 B (01.10%) ── tree-kids │ │ ├────601,472 B (01.01%) ── tree-tables │ │ └────491,424 B (00.82%) ── dict-tables Parent process after: │ ├───7,989,768 B (14.09%) -- shapes │ │ ├──6,374,056 B (11.24%) -- gc-heap │ │ │ ├──4,929,248 B (08.69%) ── tree │ │ │ ├──1,300,968 B (02.29%) ── dict │ │ │ └────143,840 B (00.25%) ── base │ │ └──1,615,712 B (02.85%) -- malloc-heap │ │ ├────611,616 B (01.08%) ── tree-tables │ │ ├────516,448 B (00.91%) ── tree-kids │ │ └────487,648 B (00.86%) ── dict-tables * GMail + a random Facebook profile, content process: Shapes total: 15,347,088 -> 14,537,256 - BaseShapes: 557,680 -> 302,112 * TechCrunch, content process: Shapes total: 9,181,640 -> 8,435,904 - BaseShapes: 434,880 -> 182,080 Note that especially BaseShapes are shared aggressively: for a content process that has mostly chrome JS (many JSM compartments in the system zone), we see 110,520 -> 23,424 bytes (4.7x smaller).
The per-compartment shape tables are now per-zone and I added a new per-zone reporter for these shape tables. There are some wins there as well.

Attached patch Patch (deleted) — Splinter Review
r? njn for the memory reporter changes. I added a ShapeInfo class that's stored in ZoneStats. I removed some unused code to report Shapes by class name: adding that requires a lot more changes and we can't use that code atm anyway. r? jonco for the rest. As discussed, I moved the "trace the global" code from BaseShape to ObjectGroup.

CC'ing GC people in case they want to take a look too.
I'm getting a failure on Try in this test: devtools/shared/heapsnapshot/tests/unit/test_HeapSnapshot_takeCensus_08.js The problem is the last test there, the one for the shapes. I think the census only looks at the debuggee compartment, and with this patch shapes are no longer allocated per compartment but per zone, so we no longer count the shapes and the test fails. The similar jit-test (tests/debug/Memory-takeCensus-08.js) still passes, I think because that one looks at the whole runtime? Nick, any suggestions?

Calling TraceCycleCollectorChildren on an ObjectGroup* will trace the global by calling traceChildren.

It's probably the code here: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ae78ab94fadabc89fc6258d03c4a1a70f763f43a/devtools/shared/heapsnapshot/HeapSnapshot.cpp#1341-1354 I think this will include atoms and the object's last shape, but it won't include the shape's ancestors. > The similar jit-test (tests/debug/Memory-takeCensus-08.js) still passes It makes sense: the code in devtools/ won't affect shell tests.
Attached patch HeapSnapshot fix (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This fixes HeapSnapshotHandler to include edges from nodes that don't belong to any compartment, like Shapes now. It fixes the failing test. Does this make sense to you?

I was going to also suggest making sure that the global is in its own zone, but it looks like we are already covered on that front: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ae78ab94fadabc89fc6258d03c4a1a70f763f43a/devtools/shared/heapsnapshot/tests/unit/head_heapsnapshot.js#73

Attached patch More HeapSnapshot changes (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
Unfortunately I still get HeapSnapshot GTest failures with that patch. When we have the following nodes: A (compartment 1) -> B (compartment 2) We do include node B when we're interested in compartment 1, but we don't include its outgoing edges. This still works exactly the same as before. Now, when we have these nodes: A (compartment 1) -> B (no compartment) -> C (no compartment) -> D (compartment 2) We used to include just A and B; my previous patch changed that to include all of the edges/nodes, so we include A, B, C, D. The patch I'm attaching tries to fix it so that we include A, B, C, but not D. This fix doesn't work though: we fail the following check, because we include the C -> D edge but not D: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ae78ab94fadabc89fc6258d03c4a1a70f763f43a/devtools/shared/heapsnapshot/HeapSnapshot.cpp#451-457 So what do we want to happen in the second case, should we include D, similar to case 1? If we don't want to include node D, how can I do that?

We can also revert this change, and only visit the first Shape. Then we just have to remove the shape test from test_HeapSnapshot_takeCensus_08.js...

If we don't want to include node D, how can I do that? Ok, this is slightly trickier than I'd hoped for, but I think this should work: * Make StreamWriter have a reference to the target compartments * When EdgePolicy::INCLUDE_EDGES in StreamWriter::writeNode, skip edges whose referent both has a compartment and the compartment is not in our target set (if we don't have a target set, it means we want everything). Right after this: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/f433f0dd7158d7bfc4c4607161fc6baa88b5a9f4/devtools/shared/heapsnapshot/HeapSnapshot.cpp#1242

Thanks for the suggestion. I factored the code out into a new ShouldIncludeEdge function. Then we can call that from both places, without duplicating any of the logic in it. This is green on Try.
