(Original proposal was from :nbp)

When we complete Bug 1544117, we will have an alternate data structure that we can utilize for bytecode caches. There are a few upsides to doing this:

  1. Remove XDR transcode code which adds maintenance complexity since it differs from normal script creation code (in particular OOM handling).
  2. Could encode off-thread to remove encoder time from main-thread during page-load.
  3. Tuning work on the normal parse-result-to-gc-thing pass would also translate into improvements for cache.
