the Lightning freezing with many events. It may also be sufficient to
put some processing into workers (Threads) instead of using the e10s

The same logic applies in non-calendar areas of Thunderbird, where
architectural factors would prevent performance improvements despite
enabling e10s [1], or be outright broken by e10s which would require big
changes to fix.

Ok, thanks for clarifying Philip and Wayne.<br>

That said, while I was challenging Ben and Joshua's contention that
'there isn't much benefit for multiprocess in TB', I certainly
wasn't implying that it would be easy to implement.<br>
