We should experiment with emptying the working set of renderers in which all frames are frozen.
Benefits:
- We can observe how quickly the working set grows after being emptied and use that to know how good we are at not touching memory when frozen.
- We (hope) that emptying the working set will hint the OS that pages can be compressed and/or swapped, and that this will reduce memory pressure.
