NotHereToPlayGames Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) 5 hours ago, Dixel said: I would also suggest to disable HIDDEN extensions inside resources.dll @Dixel - I must have a before and after screencap demonstrating that these actually DO anything. It's really not too much to ask to spend the tiny amount of time to do a screencap - I am clearly putting HOURS/DAYS into this project, a screencap is really not too much to ask in return. I have never witnessed any of them DOING anything and their "presence" in resources.dll is MEANINGLESS unless actually USED. I would like to remind you, it is not my goal to compile "Iron Redux" (an SRWare Iron version based on Chrome 86). I am a programmer (but in different programming language). It is extremely common for "subroutines" to be "present" but NEVER CALLED. The "presence" of items can ALWAYS be "found" (shadows of old routines, portions of future routines not yet used) - you need to demonstrate that they actually DO something. Again, I'm not compiling "Iron Redux" - I kindly request to please honor and respect that distinction. Edited July 5, 2021 by ArcticFoxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 2205 becomes somewhat slower overtime . For example , when I open an instrgam account with plenty of posts and scroll down and down .... like 200-300 posts closer to the bottom it becomes somewhat sluggish, but no crashes , zero , nada . It is still usable , but I didn't like such kind of behaviour . For those who are wondering , my internet PC config is 16GB DDR3 RAM + Quad Xeon CPU , GTX Titan and Vista WITHOUT updates and without the extended kernel , I do not even have SHA-2 updates. I think I shall continue to use my 360 betas . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I'm not compiling "Iron Redux" - I kindly request to please honor and respect that distinction. I'm not sure what exactly do you want me to capture with this screenshot . First off - removing these speeds up the browser launch , like 2-3x times. You can try and see for yourself . I'm absolutely fine with what you do or don't/won't/not going to do . I'm here as an advisor . I publish my personal discoveries and I have my own modded version . This is a "general discussion" topic , so people can/may want to disable it themselves. And the subroutines are called ! For example , in chromium (ordinary chromium) you can see that these create cookies and "app data". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus avoiding your posts getting lost in this general discussion . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No , but you can always check yourself . It's a 5 min. job to cut these out of the res. file. The browser unpacks these hidden extensions each time you launch it.

NotHereToPlayGames Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I'll cut them. Is there a guide somewhere on "how" to cut them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) I used PassMark AppTimer to time how long it takes 360Chrome to load. I did this with all six of my Extensions enabled. My load times are -- 6.7134 0.5007 0.4870 Timed a second set of load times -- 0.5115 0.4851 0.4821 That very first load time (6.7 seconds) is normal for the first load after a reboot (Pale Moon, New Moon, and MyPal [almost all web browsers, as far as that goes] do the same thing for first load after a reboot) Going to reboot and perform a second set of numbers for comparison. After a reboot - My load times are -- 6.1693 0.5173 0.4841 Timed a second set of load times -- 0.4812 0.5065 0.4801 Now I'll try those resource.dll edits and repeat load times for comparison.

The remaining are all .png files. Edited July 5, 2021 by ArcticFoxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
