Web Apocrypha

Last year I got a Nokia N9 on Qt Developer Days, it's a great mobile phone, I really like it, but I haven't published any memory measurement results about it yet. In my last post I did WebKit memory profiling on it with Valgrind, but it was all about heap usage. I think a number of persons are interested in the overall memory usage such as peak memory usage, the sizes of the used libraries, etc. During QtWebKit's life-cycle we switch from one library to another, usually because of performance considerations. In the past we do not take too much attention to memory consumption-related topics while switching between libraries, although it would be very vital to keep eye on this area as well.
