Short intro:
Firefox Split into Multiple Processes via Electrolysis.
Separate web content by processes. Each page opened in a browser tab runs in its own process, it can be controlled independently from the others and from the browser itself.
“There are several possible benefits of using multiple processes: Increased stability: if a plugin or webpage tries to use all the processor, memory or even crashes, a process can isolate that bad behavior from the rest of the browser. Performance: By splitting work up among multiple processes, the browser can make use of multiple processor cores available on modern desktop computers and the next generation of mobile processors. The user interface can also be more responsive because it doesn’t need to block on long-running web page activities. Security: If the operating system can run a process with lower privileges, the browser can isolate web pages from the rest of the computer, making it harder for attackers to infect a computer,”

to make locals (language files) compatible download your language build from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-l10n/ as *.win32.zip to get this 2 files yourlang.jar and yourlang.manifest.
for example by German de copy from firefox-3.6a1pre.de.win32.zip in folder Minefield\chrome the 2 files de.jar and de.manifest to the install dir into \chrome
edit in (open in 7zip) extracted .jar archive
\Minefield\chrome\de.jar\locale\browser\ the file browser.dtd
add as last line just after < !ENTITY allTabs.filter.emptyText "Tabs durchsuchen" > a new line with:
< !ENTITY ctrlTab.search.emptyText "Search Tabs" >
remove space after < and before > !
Now u can switch 2 ur language by editing in \Minefield\defaults\pref\firefox-l10n.js the entry en-us to your lang code. German will be for Deutsch 'de' from 'en-us' or use extension 'Quick Locale Switcher' from: http://www.captaincaveman.nl/firefox-extensions-quick-locale-switcher.aspx
