Games implemented on the web platform using WASM or asm.js use large
contiguous blocks of allocated memory as their backing store for game
memory. For complex games, these allocations can be quite large, sometimes
as large as 1GB. In 64-bit builds, we have no problem finding a large
enough section of virtual memory that we can allocate a large contiguous
hunk. Unfortunately normal use of Firefox quickly fragments the smaller
address space of 32-bit Firefox, meaning that these complex games often
fail to run.

If 64-bit Firefox doesn't have WASM OOM problems, will we still support the Large-Allocation header on 64-bit?
