There are several ways to test the performance for Firefox on your Sun Ray environment. The Firefox Tinderbox trees(http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=Firefox) has deployed many automated testings. Please refer to http://wiki.mozilla.org/Performance:Tinderbox_Tests to get some ideas on these tests. Some of them are also deployed on Solaris trees(http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=Firefox-Ports and http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey-Ports/). As I know, the Mozilla community is moving performance tests from Tinderbox to Talos.

If you're using the contributed Firefox build, it has its own copy of NSS/NSPR in case some user's Solaris environment doesn't have one. -Alfred > As the APOC source is not included in the mozilla/firefox tar ball, > how do I set up the APOC source code from freedesktop.org to compile > with : --enable-extensions=default,apoc > > > //Lars > > > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > desktop-discuss mailing list > desktop-discuss at opensolaris.org >
