Hello:

Recently I use Heap Snapshot Profile to analyze web pages with Chrome Browser.

But I find a problem that when I take several Heap Snapshot (about 4 ~5 or more), and use the Comparison View to 
compare tow of them, sometimes the web page will crash.

I think it is because that the heap snapshot is initially saved in the Render Process, if we take too many snapshot, 
it will out of memory in Render, so crash occurred.

Is it right?

How to resolve this problem?

Thank you very much.

We used to keep the raw snapshot data at the renderer side but now we delete them. So it shouldn't be a problem.
We had a similar bug with renderer crash when user hovers over an element in the snapshot for a preview. Is it the case?

>> But now could you tell me the workflow in detail?
     When we take the snapshot, it firstly stored in  renderer side, then written into tempfile and deleted ?

>> oh, yes. It is just that case. Why?
