+/*
+ * js_objgc.d - trace JavaScript Object GC using DTrace.
+ * Written for the JavaScript DTrace provider.
+ *
+ * $Id: js_objgc.d 63 2007-10-04 04:34:38Z brendan $
+ *
+ * This traces JavaScript activity from all running browers on the system
+ * which support the JavaScript DTrace provider.
+ *
+ * USAGE: js_objgc.d # hit Ctrl-C to end
+ *
+ * FIELDS:
+ * FILE Filename that contained the function
+ * CLASS Class to which this new object belongs
+ * TOTAL Object entropy (positive == uncollected)
+ *
+ * This script provides information on which objects are not being garbage
+ * collected, an issue which causes the browser to steadily leak memory.
+ * We trace object creation (+1) and destruction (-1), and provide a
+ * summary each second of the running tally of the object class and
+ * originating filename. If over the period of several minutes an object
+ * type is still steadily increasing, then that would be of interest.
+ * Be patient, depending on the rate of object creation it can take over
+ * ten minutes for garbage collect to kick in.
+ *
+ * NOTES:
+ * - it is possible that you will see negative entropy. That happens
+ * when you begin tracing after some objects have already been created,
+ * and then trace their destruction.
+ * - there are other Things that GC handles, other than Objects; extra
+ * probes can be added to trace them, should the need arise.
