no edit summary
<u>Purpose:</u>
* Reduce Firefox's memory footprint so it is feasible to run on a 128 MB Raspberry Pi system.
<u>Method:</u>
* Create multiple virtual machines with comparable specs to that of the Raspberry Pi.(128 MB of RAM, same processor speed, etc.)* Tweak and experiment with Firefox configurations, addons, and packages, seeing what uses an acceptable memory footprint.
<u>Materials:</u>
* Host machine for VMs* Raspberry Pi Fedora Release
<u>0.1 - Proof of Concept</u>
-* Build several Virtual Machines with Raspberry Pi specs, using the appropriate Fedora build.-* Experiment with various combinations of Firefox configurations to find smaller memory footprints
<u>0.2 - Rough Results</u>
-* Find/Propose several options for Firefox configurations
<u>0.3 - Final Recommendation</u>
-* Collaborate with those in the Open Source community, and decide on one/a few ideal configurations forvarious ARM Fedora Builds
