174873 - Chimera starts up Java at startup

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 183852

(Camino Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Simon Fraser [no longer active]]

If Java is enabled in the chimera prefs, Java gets fired up at startup, rather
than when we hit the first applet. This slows launch time, and causes lots of
JVM threads to run, some of which suck CPU time.

Java gets launched from here:

A side-effect of starting Java is that we grovel for all plugins at startup too,
increasing startup time. When Java is off, we grovel for plugins when we first
hit a page with one.

I think this might be caused by Apple's Java plugin, and not the MRJ plugin.

I ran into this while running sampler.
