Expose prefs for tabs-on-demand | Landed in Firefox 8 | Chris Lee | Mihaela Velimiroviciu |
Summary
- Firefox 4 has the hidden ability to load tabs on-demand by setting the maximum number of concurrent tabs being restored to "0" — now that the feature has been in the wild for a while, we'd like to expose it as the default behavior for session restore. It makes startup a lot faster, and uses a lot less memory.
- This feature falls primarily in the Experience category (from the "Discover, Experience, and Connect" vision statement.)
- This feature is available starting Firefox 8.
