Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [comment:1 yawning]:
 > IMO, if you think that more options should be set to *really* kill the
 JIT, then the patches should go into torbutton.  If the JIT is just always
 evil, then the Tor Browser code should never JIT JS regardless of what the
 slider says.
 Then for now, set the default slider higher?

 > (Also you're patching the wrong file, you want `mozilla.cfg`.)
 Fixed.
