    Description

      Since Version 5.2.1 of QT the loading of large javascript libraries in webkit is really slow:

      • 260ms on version 5.2.1
        + 1800ms on version 5.4.1 (same machine / same options)

      I think this is a regression.

      Here is a idea to speed up things:

      in qtwebkit\Source\JavaScriptCore\jit\JIT.cpp line 77, replace
      , m_labels( codeBlock ? codeBlock->numberOfInstructions() : 0 )
      by
      , m_labels( 0 ),

      then line 178, insert this code in method privateCompileMainPass()
      m_labels.resize( instructionCount );

      This avoid an unnecessary creation of a large array of labels (175111 on extjs) each time the jit is created (this is a lazy init)

      I can explain why if you need it
