pre-tenuring in v8

Read Original

This technical article delves into V8's pre-tenuring mechanism, which optimizes garbage collection by allocating objects directly into the old generation space instead of the nursery. It explains the use of AllocationSite and AllocationMemento objects to dynamically identify and optimize allocation sites where objects are statistically likely to survive, reducing copying and collection overhead.
