Hello, Reading the Electrolysis wikipage, this newsgroup seems to be the appropriate place for questions about Electrolysis ... I developed a firefox extension that adds filebrowser capabilities to firefox. browser-tabs are used to display the fileviews (chrome- url's), which are privileged code. the code is currently heavily relying on js modules Now that every tab is going to have it's one process due to the electrolysis-project (someday), I wonder what happens with JS Modules and XPCOM-Services. Are those still shared across the whole application in some way or will every process have its own instance? Same goes for XBL-bindings - will those also be compiled per process? Will cross-process-communication only be happening via message- passing? Thanks.
