Details

(Whiteboard: [MemShrink:P1])

In a process which has loaded just one tab containing a super simple web page, I see
├─────852,008 B (03.99%) -- profiler
│     ├──852,008 B (03.99%) ── profiler-state
│     └────────0 B (00.00%) ── lul
Whiteboard: [MemShrink]
Markus, can you take a look at this?
Flags: needinfo?(mstange)
Whiteboard: [MemShrink] → [MemShrink:P1]
The work in bug 1436179 should take care of most of this. Once that has landed, we should investigate if there's any low hanging fruit left.
Depends on: 1436179
Flags: needinfo?(mstange)
After bug 1436179 I don't see any profiler/profiler-state line without installing/starting the profiler, so I'm calling this fixed.
