For the curious, this one uses CFMessagePorts in the plevents code, and removes
the nsToolkit timer entirely. Note that, unlike the nightlies, this is a dynamic opt build,
not a static build.

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
