New Ideas for Comodo Dragon

[Guest]

just wondering why you're asking him when he wants this

cos we are almost done with the coding for what he wants

I know what you meant, I just wanted to add my 2 cents and re-arrange it a bit towards my 2 cents. Either way, I still believe that it should have been an option to begin with, or it's just another reason to use Chrome because that's a standard there.

oh ok. I thought I was the only one who caught melih's question. I get what your saying. I agree it should have been an option. maybe they had a reason for not doing it before but i don't know.

I recently learned from an artical by chiron about starting page, ixquick and scroogle which allow you to get Google results without Google tracking you. some people like the instant search of Google and don't care about tracking.

People have the freedom of choice, something we can't compete with.

Yes, I am familiar with those search engines, you are missing DuckDuckGo, though.

ah I see. will it be free to use comodo to sync dragon's profile or will you have to pay. also off topic but any word on DACS?

I forgot all about them. I used to use the adding for FireFox on my moms computer. now she uses dragon. I can't remember if it has any features besides filtering malicious results. does it use Google or ask

Load-on-demand Extensions & Apps

Something I have noticed about both CD and Chrome is that there seems to be a lot of memory tied up for extensions that are not being used.  This seems counterproductive and it definitely slows the browser down. 

Some extensions like Ad Block, Weather extensions, Website Blocker, etc., need to be loaded all the time to do their jobs. 

However, there are a lot of extensions and most of the applications that appear on a blank new tab that are just wasting memory by being loaded when they are inactive.  All of the apps that are for games or things like the Chrome Web Store, Image downloaders, searchers or editors, and quite a few others have no need to have anything but their icons, with a link to the actual extension, loaded in memory except when you want to use them!  As any experienced programmer knows, doing this is known as implementing a load-on-demand system.  An icon and a link tie up a trivial amount of memory compared to the average 7.5 MB that is consumed by extensions, addons or apps that are not doing anything significant.  If icons were restricted to less than 250 KB or so and the code for the link was restricted to under 500 KB, then the two would require less than 1 MB, at most, and that seems overly generous.  In my case, doing things this way would immediately recover about 105 MB of memory that would be available for other programs to use.  I know of several other extensions that I would like to have, but I refuse to add them because of the memory cost from just having them.

Please take a look at this and consider implementing it.  Anything that streamlines a browser and saves memory for other programs to use is a good thing in the long run.

Load-on-demand Extensions & Apps

Something remotely similar, if not actual, is an experimental feature that they are working on called "Lazy Background Pages." You can find this feature and try it out under the dragon://flags URL.

what do you mean recommend a website to visit?

Like that similar software you used to have, I think it was called HopSurf or something like that.

COS ,
Comodo Online Storage = Syncing = Cloud ?

I do hope that will be off by default ?.

Would it be possible to compile a x64 version? I think Chromium can be compiled to it though it isn't for windows.

Now, this is funny.

Chrome has those implied, so you only request those?
Why not add the wmp plugin, java plugin, shockwave plugin, Silverlight plugin, and everything else to the list?
