Methods and tools to detect and fix memory leaks in JavaScript #10

Open valueof opened 11 years ago

Would love to learn different methods and tools people use to detect memory leaks in JavaScript. JS apps are quite often very leaky.

I've been playing a lot with smartos and mdb recently. ::jsfindobjects is pretty awesome.

Hi, Chrome supports heap snapshots: https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/docs/heap-profiling The tools are kind of in an early stage and are not easy to use.

I have an early version of http://www.eclipse.org/mat/ running, which can read those Chrome/V8 heap snapshots.

It already works pretty well, IMHO better than what the Chrome dev tools offer.

I'm currently in the process to get it open sourced, stay tuned!

Regards, Markus

Yes. I cannot show it until my company has gone all the way to get it open source
