Do you have any special things I should look at more closely, like behaviour? And where exactly should improvements be visible? On things like scrolling? Tab switching?
Let me know if you want me to perform some special things. I just run it now as I do normally, so far no problems found.

Hi All,
In the past we've speculated that the way Camino handles gecko events may be responsible for some of the various performance issues people report with Camino. This includes but is not limited to CPU usage during flash playback.
I've got a patch up: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=271050
which drastically changes how gecko events are dispatched. Because this code is invoked so frequently and the change is so dramatic, I need a lot of testing before this will sound like a good idea :-).
It would help out a lot if as many folks as possible could either build and test or download the disk image here: http://www.speakeasy.org/~gbeier/Camino-perftest.dmg.bz2
and browse with the two builds included there. The one in the "Old event handling" folder should be very similar to tonight's nightly. The only difference between that one and the one in the "New event handling" folder is the above patch; this should make it easily to isolate performance differences introduced by this change.
Anyone who gets to kick it around, please report results back either to this list or on the bug itself.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Geoff
