You need to defind partial, because 90% of the codebase is still C++.


Some thoughts:

1. Firefox is a huge codebase. 10% of that is still quite a bit.

2. Some highly complex core parts of firefox such as the rendering engine are at least partly written in Rust.

3. The bits written in Rust are not all isolated from the bits written in C++. In places they intertwine at a function level of granularity.
