Multithread
Equo Chromium supports running Chromium in a "multi-threaded mode", which allows Chromium to manage its own internal event loop separately from the main UI thread.
This is useful for:
-
Drag and drop support on Linux
-
Performance improvements in how Chromium manages rendering and browser events
-
Running with the Standalone mode.
To enable Multithread, set the -Dchromium.multi_threaded_message_loop
system property:
-Dchromium.multi_threaded_message_loop=true
By default, this feature is disabled to maintain compatibility with previous versions.
In the Standalone mode, enabling Multithread means you no longer need to explicitly call ChromiumBrowser.startBrowsers()
. Normally, this method is required to start the browser event loop and block the main thread until all browser windows are closed.
