@Remy: Any comment on the difference in memory management and performance between storing a ton of data in memory (as an object or array, for example) and using local/sessionStorage?
I’m thinking for example of a Google Maps implementation where you need to manage a lot of locations/markers/data; in that instance, using the equivalent of a local database to store and retrieve the data sounds like a great solution, but only if it’s going to perform better than simply storing it all in a big array.
