Storage location of NoScript whitelist items
Posted: Sat Aug 27, 2011 7:39 pm
Pure curiousity:
I've been using NoScript for some time, and have many bookmarks, and a correspondingly large NoScript whitelist. An exported copy shows I have 9860 entries, taking 185K of a 307K prefs.js file
Right now, NoScript stores whitelisted items in a userpref in the prefs.js file. At some point, I can see this leading to issues if you accumulate a lot of whitelist items.
Would it make sense for NoScript to start keeping keep the whitelist in an external SQLite database like most other things in FF, instead of putting everything in prefs.js?
