Details

I was trying to diagnose an OOM error when running at test with --run-until-failure.

When I asked in #memshrink, someone helpfully pointed me to the --dump-about-memory-after-test option. Unfortunately, that keeps overwriting the same file when a single test is being run repeatedly.

This was good enough to show me the final about:memory dump, but I was hoping to get a diff of about:memory for the first and final iterations of the test I was trying to debug.
