Content

  • Like the content sink preference we messed around with for 1.0, we might be able to get a bit more responsiveness in e10 by changing some knobs. No one currently signed up for this task yet, but getting someone talking to jonas and writing code and measuring could make page load interaction alot better (but probably not much faster).

Other

  • (tchung) please test weave 1.3b5 with fennec 1.1. i've already noticed performance usage has dropped with it enabled, so would love to get other people's perceptions. things i've seen has been slower page loading, zoom doesnt recover out of formfill helper, and low memory warnings
