Abstract: A content processing device and corresponding method for processing source code are disclosed. The method may include receiving source code with a virtual machine operating on a hardware platform with an inherent address-pointer-bit-width and generating, from the source code, executable code that includes internal address pointers to objects in the virtual machine heap. One or more runtime conditions may be monitored and a size of a bit-width for the internal address pointers in the virtual machine may be adjusted, with or without associated changes to create optimized layout of the objects in the virtual machine heap, based upon one or more runtime conditions.

Abstract: A computing device comprising a JIT compiler, an application, and a JavaScript Engine. The computing device is adapted to receive at least one identified portion of a JavaScript source code, replace original context specific reference values in the JavaScript with one or more placeholders, and generate a first JIT copy of the code. The computing device is adapted to create a description of the original context specific reference values having one or more requirements, store the description, access runtime information related to the original context specific reference values, compare the runtime information to the stored description, obtain new context-specific reference values, replace/update the placeholders with the new context-specific reference values, generate a second JIT copy of the at least one identified portion of the JavaScript source code comprising the new context-specific reference values, and execute the second JIT copy in the new execution context.
