Other than profiling (performance measurements) I don't expect any issues from the introduction of a JIT (I guess that is what you mean by tracemonkey). We've seen no problems or issues so far. JITs generally work to be hidden behind the interpreter and Firebug works above the interpreter, so they don't meet very often.
I expect the JIT to have dramatic impact on a few cases, modest impact on a lot of cases, and no impact on the majority of cases. This is based on the character of programs -- most are limited by interaction between components, not internal straight line code -- based on the track record of JITs in Java. BTW, Firefox has an excellent interpreter, making the JIT folks work hard to beat it. But by now you can use FF3.1 and find out for yourself how it will work on your code. jjb On Mar 22, 3:06 am, Tom Potts <[email protected]> wrote: > Wondering if Firebug will cope OK with tracemonkey (assuming its still > due for FF3.1) > I'm going to embark on a large projects and if Firebug and Tracmonkey > get on well then that will move a lot of code to clientside in the > browser. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
