(Whiteboard: [perf] awaiting code review w/ hyatt)

Profiling has shown content model construction to dominate (~40%) of the cost. Much of the time is spent converting data into, and then out of, and RDF graph. (The graph adds value for overlays and persistence.) Re-implement, without RDF graph.

Moved work into XUL_19990930_BRANCH, which has been cut from mozilla/rdf on down. (I mostly did this because my system is starting to show signs of OS rot.) But if anyone wants to take a look, pitch in, whatever, feel free.
shaver and i got this mostly working tonight. clawing away at a couple weird bugs. browser comes up. sidebar usually does to. mailnews can seem to find folder objects.
okay, a quick-n-dirty "before vs. after" looks like we may have won a 15% improvement in open new window (beware, sample size == 1). Before the changes, opening new window on about:blank sans-a-sidebar took 1.7s; after it took 1.4s. we still aren't bug-complete, need to finish persistence and pick mailnews off the floor. scottip: AFAICT the mialnews problem has to do with the fact that we're no longer indexing the element map with resource objects; hence, we drop references to the mailnews resources pretty eagerly. I was thinking we could fix this by stuffing a resource reference into the element itself. what do you think?

Rolled changes forward to XUL_19991001_BRANCH; fixed problems with mailnews. Just need to scuttle persistence and we should be ready to land...
