Attached patch PatchSplinter Review
START_ASSERT_SAME_COMPARTMENT calls CurrentThreadIsHeapBusy which does an OOL call where we do a TLS lookup. Compartment checks are Nightly-only but this overhead makes it harder to profile.

Here's a patch to just inline CurrentThreadIsHeapBusy in START_ASSERT_SAME_COMPARTMENT.
