A New Memory Tool for the Web (Ben Galbraith's Blog)

Ben Galbraith is Mozilla's Co-Director of Developer Tools. In this blog post he ponders various gaps in the tool-chain with regard to memory tools. "To be clear, most web pages and web applications don't push the browser's memory limitations enough to cause performance problems related to either of the scenarios above. As stated at the outset, this blog entry is about those web applications that need to treat the browser as a high-performance run-time, which in the context of this entry means that they have much-larger-than-average memory requirements."
