Re: Fasterfox
Webmasters usually don't like it because of the extra burden it puts on servers. It is prefetching links like crazy. If everyone was using that extension here that would kill the xltronic server.

you can block prefetching on the site if the burden is too much
just put this in the robots.txt file in the root directory
User-agent: Fasterfox Disallow: /

I don't use the pre-fetching feature on it anyway. Waste of time.

The caching is better than that built into firefox and the pipeline stuff.

I'm not sure. I think the ones on mozdev are projects they're interested in. Maybe they have a view to adding them into the core at a later date or something.
