e10s memory usage?

[Chris Peterson]

Do we have any measurements of how e10s affects Firefox's memory usage
(real and virtual) or other performance metrics?

The blog post I wrote has some preliminary numbers with one content process:

Configuration Main process memory usage Content process usage
Single-process 974 MB
Multiprocess 124 MB 860 MB
So it's a total increase of about 10MB when 50 tabs are open.

I'm still waiting for the planet.m.o syndication to happen. I've pinged
reed several times on IRC with no response. There's someone named Robert
Accettura who also fixes these bugs, but I can't find him on IRC either.
Not sure what to do next.

Not bad! :) Do you know off hand how much of that 10MB overhead is
per-tab, per-content process, or fixed (for the chrome process)?

I talked to reed on IRC yesterday. He said he would process outstanding
Planet syndication requests, including yours, later that day. But I see
your bug is still open.
