    Does that mean that all the extensions are universal, too? Or it's just not as slow since only the extensions are going through Rosetta, and not the app as well?

    Hey Dave,

    Extensions are basically javascript with an XML-based front-end (XUL), therefore in theory they should be universal. But they are inherent things like macs filesystem that make certain thing incompatible if they aren't coded the right way.
