Nothing except the tests. Compiling a sizeable application with Scudo as well.

Mostly because I didn't have the time and resources to make sure this would work over the long term.
I used my home windows box to do this as a proof of concept that it could be done.

Yeah this makes sense.

The other point that is worth mentioning is that we moved all dev efforts to the "standalone" version of Scudo (eg: the one not depending on sanitizer_common in the standalone/ subdirectory).
There is enough differences that there could be some significant performance/mem footprint changes between the 2.

Also depending on what you want to compare, disabling the Quarantine and other optional security features will make things faster and use less memory.
