Does it make sense to ship 64-bit Firefox before shipping
mutli-process/sandboxed Firefox? I worry that 64-bit Firefox will be more
memory hungry than 32-bit Firefox and if it lands first then it will be
harder to land multi-process Firefox which is also likely to use more
memory. I think having multi-process sooner is more important than having
64-bit sooner, if there is such a choice to make. IMO, it would be good to
make explicit choices instead of just shipping whichever is done first.

Cheers,
Brian
