Why not compared with other browser like chrome etc?

In Firefox you can easily answer questions like "how much memory are strings taking up on this page", thanks to the fine-grained measurements available in about:memory.

I don't know of a way to get these measurements in other browsers. Chrome's about:memory page contains much coarser measurements, for example.

Chrome has the memory profiler for that.
Does that even work for memory usage by native code?
