Details

nsStyleDisplay and nsStylePosition are massive, and we often have a lot of them. I think they still have some room for packing by shuffling some fields around. Also, ServoComputedData could shrink by a word by packing the FontComputationData up around with the CascadeFlags and WritingMode.
I have something for Gecko, but doing it on the properties/gecko.mako.rs makes me sad. I'll refactor some stuff as I work on this.

Emilio, do we have credible optimizations to do here in the 57 timeframe?

I can land bug 1395586, and the packing patch which save 4 words per nsStyleDisplay, but today I got distracted with other stuff. Will want to land at least some shuffling of the field which gives us two words for free.
