 instead of the System WebView. Requires cordova-android 4.0 or greater.

+Performance improvements

+
+## Drawbacks

+Increased memory footprint
+An overhead of ~30MB (as reported by the RSS column of ps)
+Unlike the system WebVew, Crosswalk resources are not shareable between applications
+Increased APK size (about 17MB)
+Increased size on disk when installed (about 50MB)
