waterson done some investigaton and found that we're loading 34 RDF files. his list is below $(DIST)/bin/chrome/user-skins.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/all-skins.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/user-locales.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/all-locales.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/all-packages.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/user-skins.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/all-skins.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/user-locales.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/all-locales.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/all-packages.rdf $(PROFILE)/localstore.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/search.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/messenger/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/messenger/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/messenger/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/messenger/content/overlays.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/global/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/global/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/global/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/global/content/overlays.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/content/overlays.rdf chrome://global/locale/builtinURLs.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/chatzilla/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/chatzilla/skin/stylesheets.rdf $(DIST)/bin/chrome/overlayinfo/chatzilla/content/overlays.rdf $(PROFILE)/chrome/overlayinfo/chatzilla/content/overlays.rdf chrome://communicator/locale/taskbar.rdf hyatt claimed that most of these rdf files dont exist. chrome registry tries to load many of them and failed... what can we do to speed up this process?

Ok, profiled this. It turns out that short-circuiting the datasource creation is not going to buy us much. The time is spent actually reading and parsing the RDF/XML. There's an older bug that I just un-futured that we should fix instead, which has to do with emitting terse RDF/XML (bug 35816). Resolving this as INVALID.

I should've added, RDFXMLDataSourceImpl::Refresh() is what I'm looking at; it's the place where the time is spent. Of that, about 70% of the time is spent in nsParser::OnDataAvailable(), consuming bytes. Very little time is spent in nsFileChannel::Open(). A marginal amount of time is spent in the component manager creating the parser etc.: we *could* short-circuit that if we were willing to try to stat() the file first. (But then we pay for component creation of nsIFile objects, etc., as well as doing a double-stat in the case where the file exists. Seems like a wash.) So the money is in making the RDF/XML content sink do less work.
