Details

Many ad networks' Flash specs describe "polite loading", where secondary ad assets should load after the web page has finished loading. Shumway could enforce this by delaying SWF parsing or loading until after page load.

Shumway could also use Gecko's nsISupportsPriority.PRIORITY_LOWEST for HTTP loads to avoid blocking web page connections.
