Some drivers (at least the Intel drivers on Windows) are slow at
incrementally updating a VBO with hundreds of calls to glBufferSubData
every frame. Performance is significantly better if you use
glBufferData(NULL) to tell it to discard all the previous contents, and
then re-upload all the data at once.
Update CVertexBuffer so that GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW/GL_STREAM_DRAW buffers are
handled with the new mechanism. This requires the caller to hold onto
the backing store so it can be re-uploaded when necessary, and needs a
bit more signalling to indicate exactly what needs uploading.
I see an improvement from roughly 60 to 75 fps on Intel HD Graphics
3000, Windows, 1024x768, Siwa Oasis.
This was SVN commit r16241.
This reduces the total number of different vertex sizes in the system,
allowing more data to share a single CVertexBuffer, therefore reducing
the amount of wasted space in each CVertexBuffer and reducing VRAM
usage.
This was SVN commit r16230.
The script updates the local repository, regenerates the POT files,
downloads the
latest PO files, reverts any change that Pology determines as not
meaningful, and
adds the modified files to the local VCS.
The script does not actually perform the final commit, that is left for
the user.

I've reverted this workaround before the SM31 commit because I thought
it's only a problem with VS2010. Actually VS2013 still doesn't support
C++11 well enough and still requires the workaround.

This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!

This was SVN commit r16214.
The implementation on Windows was gross. The only user was CLogger,
which no longer uses it.
Also fix vswprintf_s to handle truncated output correctly (by returning
"") on Linux, now that CLogger is no longer relying on the buggy
behaviour.
This was SVN commit r16190.
Everything is char* now, so we don't need to mess around with different
string types.
Done with:
ag -ls 'LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR)' source | xargs perl
-pi -e'1 while
s/(LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR).*)%[hl]s/$1%s/g'
This was SVN commit r16187.
