Improving DataView performance in V8 · V8
Show navigation DataViews are one of the two possible ways to do low-level memory accesses in JavaScript, the other one being TypedArrays. Up until now, DataViews were much less optimized than TypedArrays in V8, resulting in lower performance on tasks such as graphics-intensive workloads or when decoding/encoding binary data. The reasons for this have been mostly historical choices, like the fact
Celebrating 10 years of V8 · V8
Show navigation This month marks the 10-year anniversary of shipping not just Google Chrome, but also the V8 project. This post gives an overview of major milestones for the V8 project in the past 10 years as well as the years before, when the project was still secret. A visualization of the V8 code base over time, created using gource.Before V8 shipped: the early years #Google hired Lars Bak in t
Embedded builtins · V8
V8 built-in functions (builtins) consume memory in every instance of V8. The builtin count, average size, and the number of V8 instances per Chrome browser tab have been growing significantly. This blog post describes how we reduced the median V8 heap size per website by 19% over the past year. Background #V8 ships with an extensive library of JavaScript (JS) built-in functions. Many builtins are

Concurrent marking in V8 · V8
Show navigation This post describes the garbage collection technique called concurrent marking. The optimization allows a JavaScript application to continue execution while the garbage collector scans the heap to find and mark live objects. Our benchmarks show that concurrent marking reduces the time spent marking on the main thread by 60%–70%. Concurrent marking is the last puzzle piece of the Or
Adding BigInts to V8 · V8
Over the past couple of months, we have implemented support for BigInts in V8, as currently specified by this proposal, to be included in a future version of ECMAScript. The following post tells the story of our adventures. TL;DR #As a JavaScript programmer, you now[1] have integers with arbitrary[2] precision in your toolbox: const a = 2172141653n; const b = 15346349309n; a * b; // → 333344445555

Improved code caching · V8
V8 uses code caching to cache the generated code for frequently-used scripts. Starting with Chrome 66, we are caching more code by generating the cache after top-level execution. This leads to a 20–40% reduction in parse and compilation time during the initial load. Background #V8 uses two kinds of code caching to cache generated code to be reused later. The first is the in-memory cache that is av
Background compilation · V8
TL;DR: Starting with Chrome 66, V8 compiles JavaScript source code on a background thread, reducing the amount of time spent compiling on the main thread by between 5% to 20% on typical websites. Background #Since version 41, Chrome has supported parsing of JavaScript source files on a background thread via V8’s StreamedSource API. This enables V8 to start parsing JavaScript source code as soon as

V8 memory quiz
V8 is the JavaScript engine that Chrome and Node use to run JavaScript code. Take this quiz to discover some interesting implementation details about how V8 stores values in memory. Reading this probably won’t help you fix any performance issues you encounter day-to-day. 1. How much memory is used per array element?
