To actually make the multiprocess communication work, we'll need to
reroute the task creation to the pipeline or the compositor. But this
works as a first step.
process parts.
This will make it easier to adapt to IPC.
The trickiest part here was to make script tasks spawn new layout tasks
directly instead of having the pipeline do it for them. The latter
approach will not work in multiprocess mode, because layout and script
must run in the same address space and the pipeline cannot inject tasks
into another process.
html5ever now uses the Tendril string type to minimize copying internally,
but Servo still converts from/to `String` at the boundary
(which involves copying).
The util component specified fnv and smallvec as dependencies and publicly
reexported both of them. Several other components utilized these reexports,
presumably because fnv and smallvec used to live in the tree so reexporting
made the transition easier.
These indirect dependencies through the util component are unnecessary.
This commit removes the fnv & smallvec crate reexports in the util component.
It exchange, it adds fnv & smallvec as dependencies to non-util components
wherever needed. Finally, it removes the fnv dependency from util as it is not
utilized anywhere in the util component.
This uses some dependencies from crates.io instead of git
where the crates.io copy was already used in some other part
of the dependency tree, so we had two copies of the same library.
The `android_glue` crate is the only one left where we have two copies,
but solving that is more tricky since we hard-code a path in
`components/servo/.cargo/config`.
A rebuild after touching components/profile/mem.rs now takes 48 seconds (and
only rebuilds `profile` and `servo`) which is much lower than it used to be.
In comparison, a rebuild after touching components/profile_traits/mem.rs takes
294 seconds and rebuilds many more crates.
This change also removes some unnecessary crate dependencies in `net` and
`net_traits`.
- Most of util::memory has been moved into profile::mem, though the
`SizeOf` trait and related things remain in util::memory. The
`SystemMemoryReporter` code is now in a submodule
profile::mem::system_reporter.
- util::time has been moved entirely into profile::time.
