Currently plugincheck.js calls jsonp for each plugins and takes a longer time as more plugins installed. The PFS2 API can accept many MIMETypes at once, so the request should be one time. I have rewritten the code from scratch to reduce the running time. Give it a try: http://mozilla.jp/firefox/security/plugincheck/

(In reply to comment #0) This is a cool idea. When we started building PFS2 last year, we discussed a bulk API to keep XHR calls down to 1 per plugin check. The reason we went to 1 call per plugin was for scalability. It's easier to do web server caching per plugin where you will only vary (the cache key) by platform, browser, etc. With a single call then you have the various combinations of plugins, so most requests will be unique. In practice, I don't know our cache hit/miss ratio in production (or if we are even caching), but if resources become an issue this is something we have to lean on.
Plugin-Check is no longer supported.
