Using the definite article ("the") there, is fundamentally wrong.
When you load a web page in Firefox, there are at least 2 processes
involved in "fetching data from web", possibly more, depending on the
exact configuration. At the very least there is the process where the
actual socket access happens (which is probably the "parent" Firefox
process, which is the first one that starts, in your case), but which
data should be fetched and what's done with it is largely determined in
a different ("child") process.

Re: Intent to ship: accumulating most JS scripts' data as UTF-8, then directly parsing as UTF-8 (without inflating to UTF-16)
This is excellent news. Do you have any measurements showing perf effects? Semi-relatedly, Swift 5 will change the preferred encoding of strings from UTF-16 to UTF-8. Some readers might find the accompanying blog post interesting: https://swift.org/blog/utf8-string/.

My strong suspicion is that one > way or another, your fears will be allayed. So, as described in the mentioned trip report [1], Contracts has been pulled from C++20 and is now targeting C++23. While the C++23 design is very much open at this stage, I have high confidence that it will include a mechanism to make contracts have no effect when not checked, like you want.

Re: Firefox command seems to be a wrapper
Mike, I even tried that. The command /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox www.google.com will spawn multiple processes. As I tried with my tracer, I see that the above process executes instructions even after the firefox window is opened and google page is fetched. However, I am not sure if the tracer logs *the process that fetches data from web* or not. Hope that I stated the problem clearly.
