I have found out the following:
If you change your RAF function into two "ping-pong" like functions, you get alot less garbage. You can't avoid the first initial "big GC", but after that you see only minor GCs of about 50kb instead of 700kb-1mb GCs. The code will look like this:
<script type='text/javascript' charset='utf-8'>
window.frameA = function() {
window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame(window.frameB);
};
window.frameB = function() {
window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame(window.frameA);
};
window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame(window.frameA);
</script>
I guess this is the best you can do in Chrome.
I noticed that in FF the gc intervals or memory hardly changes, so its probably related to the chrome debugging stuff (see the linked chrome bug report above for more details). However, I noticed an improvement in my own game when deploying RAF like this - and heck I need to be able to debug it without artificial GCs that won't happen on normal users machines.
