Jack Moffitt a0237085c6 Use Cargo's target directory sharing.
This speeds up `./mach build --dev` followed by `./mach build-cef` by a
large amount, and also speeds up other build combos found in our CI.

The power and performance measurement for Servo parallel browser

This script uses PowerMetrics to measure power usage of Servo on OS X

Running

cd servo/tests/power
sudo python PowerMeasure.py

You can define the maximum number of threads in layout level, rendering by cpu, benchmarks and output directory with these command line arguments:

  • -b BENCHMARK, --benchmark BENCHMARK sets the benchmark, for example '-B "perf-rainbow.html"'
  • -c CPU, --CPU CPU renders with CPU instead of GPU
  • -l LAYOUTTHREADS, --LayoutThreads LAYOUTTHREADS sets the maximum number of threads for layout, for example " -L 5"
  • -o OUTPUT, --Output OUTPUT specifyes the output directory

Example

This command will measure power and performance for 1 to 5 threads in layout with CPU rendering when we are running the about-mozilla.html benchmark

sudo python PowerMeasure.py -L 5 -c cpu -b "/Desktop/servo/src/test/html/about-mozilla.html" -o /Desktop/Results/
