Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I wholeheartedly agree with what Mike said, in addition the XSS protection
 code seems to cause my CPU to peak at 100% (poor Intel Atom), ma1 should
 really consider converting it to WebAssembly and hopefully WebAssembly
 will be enabled by default in the upcoming Tor Browser 9 alpha.
