-## Using valgrind
-
-To run valgrind on the browser and renderer processes, with our suppression file
-and flags:
-
- $ cd $CHROMIUM_ROOT/src
- $ tools/valgrind/valgrind.sh out/Debug/chrome
-
-You can use valgrind on chrome and/or on the renderers e.g
-`valgrind --smc-check=all ../sconsbuild/Debug/chrome`
-or by passing valgrind as the argument to `--render-cmd-prefix`.
-
-Beware that there are several valgrind "false positives" e.g. pickle, sqlite and
-some instances in webkit that are ignorable. On systems with prelink and address
-space randomization (e.g. Fedora), you may also see valgrind errors in libstdc++
-on startup and in gnome-breakpad.
-
-Valgrind doesn't seem to play nice with tcmalloc. To disable tcmalloc set the GN arg:
-
- use_allocator="none"
-
-and rebuild.
