(Keywords: memory-footprint)

To reduce the in memory size of mozilla we should add a flag to the sink's Init() method to flag that the user of the data doesn't want comments to be added to the result tree.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Summary: Need the ability to strop out comments when parsing XML data → Need the ability to strip out comments when parsing XML data
Target Milestone: --- → mozilla0.9.2
The primary user of this flag would be XBL, there's no need to keep the comments in XBL files around after we've parsed the files.

Target Milestone: mozilla1.0 → mozilla1.0.1
Would need more info about the actual gain to set a higher priority. Perhaps I'll take a stab at it one of these days.

Not an issue any more. This was a bloat/perf issue for XBL before we had an XBL content sink. WONTFIX.
