[chromium-dev] Re: 2 Questions about Npapi (and flash in particular)

2009-08-02 Thread yoav zilberberg
i have none. if i could do it on my machine i would debug it and
(fopefully) find the root cause
my intention in posting it here is that maybe the person who wrote NPAPI
will say
oh, this makes sense or maybe this thread will die ..

anyways, the address space issue seems to make sense in a way, but then
again, i never wrote anything with
flash or anything like it, so i don't know how they handle the Address space
issues (they really have only one process
for the plugin)

 1- you fork a process for npapi plugins, but many people report that
 if they have a bookmark folder with loads
 of flash content, they get an 'Aw Snap' or the lucky ones get OUt of
 Script memory

Got any actual repro cases? :) That would be very helpful.

Sounds like a race.  If someone would submit the list of bookmarks in
such a folder I bet John could reproduce it.

 this only happens if they do it fast, my question is
 are you running out of Address space (this mostly happens for 64bit
 vista but also 32XP and vista)

1) Address space is per-process.
2) We use a single process for all Flash content, so it should be
comparable to the way it works in a single-process browser.

Evan thanx, but the 2nd part of the --safe-plugins, i know it works on dev,
and it does seem to create the plugininside the sandbox, so is this a good
solution security wise to suggest to people ?

I don't know this flag, but one reason we don't do plugin sandboxing
is that it disables security updates for plugins.
