Project News

October 2008

Date Comments
Oct 2nd, 2008 After talking with Ted and Dave Humphrey I am going to focus my project on increasing the profiling of Firefox to increase its speed.

I am also enabling the modules that have PGO disable and running the xpcshell and Mochitests on them to determine if they are still broken or if they are now working.
