Details

(Whiteboard: [MemShrink:P3]) 

Looks like bug 677466 but I think they are different.
The idea is to count the memory taken by stuff like nsGkAtoms, nsWidgetAtoms, nsHtml5Atoms, etc.
See: https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/ident?i=NS_RegisterStaticAtoms&filter=

In a DMD run where I opened gmail and techcrunch.com, allocations that involved NS_RegisterStaticAtoms accounted for roughly 70KB out of 118MB.  That's 0.06%,  which is too small to be worth bothering with.  If we get data later on (from DMD or elsewhere) that shows static atoms are important, we can reopen this bug.
