The slowness wasn't caused (just) by slow addons. As I remember it, Firefox was unable to move to a multi-process architecture as long as old extensions were supported.
- mook 4y agoMy recollection was that they had some multi-process things, though the problem was that they had to keep breaking extensions as they added more and more. I believe multi-process NPAPI plugins was somewhere around 3.6 or 4? (Of course, 4 took forever to ship too… that was great for extensions though, because it meant no API breakage during that time.)
