This change would slow down every nsHttpTransaction:Init() call by the time it takes to check a preference.
Actually, if you cached the pref value (on nsHttpHandler, probably, and made sure the pref is observed by the handler by adding things in nsHttpHandler::Init as needed), there wouldn't have to be a pref lookup here; just a quick boolean comparison.
I should be able to make the changes to the source myself, but being a total newbee, I am not sure of how to get the approvals needed to make it into the code base.
File a bug, post a patch, request review from the module owner by setting the review flag on the attachment, request super-review once you have review, then ask someone (probably one of the reviewers) to check it in. The process is described at http://www.mozilla.org/hacking/life-cycle.html and the module owners are listed at http://www.mozilla.org/owners.html (for this change you'd want Darin Fisher).
Let me know if you run into problems, -Boris _______________________________________________ Mozilla-netlib mailing list Mozilla-netlib@mozilla.org http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-netlib
