Comment (by mikeperry):
On slow sites, you get a script popup if it tries to do something
extremely intensive and stalls out. This can be improved by raising
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Dom.max_script_run_time, but it's already at 10
seconds. The browser UI is also unresponsive during this entire time.
This is pretty bad for usability, in my opinion. Given that we almost have
ASAN builds (#10599) and those are only 2X slower (instead of like 10X as
we see for the JIT), I think that the better option is to turn these JIT
optimizations back on, and provide the ASAN-hardened builds for people who
want hardening.
