Hello all, Just sending a quick note to let you know that I've filed bug 1469072[1] to move Activity Stream into its own content process. This is something that Fission needs, but we're hoping to squeeze some performance benefits out of it as well by reducing, reusing and recycling various Activity Stream things since they'll all be contained within a single process. It might also allow us to cache more Activity Stream scripts in ScriptPreloader[2], since we can reasonably assume only trusted JavaScript will be running within the Activity Stream content process. This work is going to be handled by my intern, Jay Lim. If you have any concerns with this plan, please bring them to my attention - commenting in the bug, emailing me, or responding to this thread on dev-platform is fine. Thanks! -Mike [1]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1469072 [2]: I wrote about ScriptPreloader on my blog here: https://mikeconley.ca/blog/2018/05/30/firefox-performance-update-9/ _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
