What?
Flash Performance Improvement Plan: Mozilla is working on a number of projects to reduce the use of the Adobe Flash Player plugin.
Why?
The Flash plugin is plagued with security bugs and it is the top cause of Firefox crashes or hangs. Also, Flash is proprietary technology that is available on just a few platforms.
How?
- Reduce the need for Flash content by improving web platform alternatives:
- bug 1083588 - Media Source Extensions (MSE) for YouTube's HTML5 video
- bug 1015800 - Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) video for HTML5 video
- bug 1121280 - Improve full-screen user experience for HTML5 video
- RTMP.js, JavaScript client for Adobe's Real Time Messaging Protocol for streaming video
- asm.js, Emscripten, and Unity to run C++ games on the web at near-native speed, without plugins.
- Reduce use of the Flash plugin:
- Make plugins click-to-play
- Shumway for Flash videos, ads, and games
- Someday remove support for NPAPI plugins. Google plans to remove Chrome's NPAPI support in September 2015.
- Reduce stability problems caused by the Flash plugin:
- bug 1116806 - Asynchronous Plugin Initialization: An Introduction
- bug 1123755 - Gecko NPAPI sandbox
- Experiment to measure the effects of Disabling Adobe's Protected Mode
