1315997 - Increase in memory usage at flash games sites

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Tracy Walker [:tracy]]

From bug 1305135, we're seeing an increase in memory usage at flash game sites.  reporter requested testing of https://apps.facebook.com/slotomania.  There I see memory usage in my Win 7 VM rise from steady state of 80% while browser has game loaded, but not actually playing it, to 85% when the game is played in asyndrawing mode.  The memory usage hovers around 82-83% when the game is played with asyncDrawing mode disabled.  Testing done in 49.0.2

This is tagged as a regression but I don't see any "before" numbers here?

Hi :jimm,
Can you help shed some light here or find an owner for this?

This is flash async painting related.

I wonder why my browser cache can not save this game, each player has to reload long https://sites.google.com/site/unblockedgames24h/run-3

We believe this was fixed by an update in the Flash player related to async drawing. Resolving.
