1. Load https://tbpl.mozilla.org/images/closebutton-dark.svg
2. Check about:memory
3. See that this doc is using 600K of styledata memory.

Is this with more reporters than there were about a week ago?  Because my opt build shows u using about 75KB on styledata on this SVG.  Which is similar to how much data we use for about:blank, unsurprisingly.  All of that is due to ua.css, of course.

This is with Tuesday's stock nightly which AFAIK has no new reporters.

I am on Windows ... if that might matter.

OK, just tried this in today's stock Mac nightly, with a clean profile.

│        ├───74,368 B (00.12%) -- styledata

Granted, on Mac, so in a 64-bit build.  I have a really hard time believing that we're really using 8-9x as much memory there in a Windows 32-bit build.

Just to make sure, this is a clean profile, no extensions, no huge userContent.css?

No, it's not actually.  I can't reproduce this in a clean profile.

Alright!  So what's different about your profile?  This seems worth figuring out....

I have Adblock Plus installed.

Not sure what we can do here other than share stuff between documents or something similar.

	Comment 7 • 13 years ago

The amount of memory used by styledata (as measured by our current reporter) essentially depends on the number of selectors used in the stylesheets....  So yeah, either fewer selectors or more sharing of some sort.  This last is complicated by the fact that the cascade really does need to be different for different documents, in general.

Which selectors count here? I guess that selectors in @-moz-document limited to another domain don't count? If so, we are currently talking about roughly 4500 selectors in EasyList. Unfortunately, finding the ones that are no longer useful is non-trivial. A solution is planned but might take a while to implement.

I believe that is correct.
