>Are there any existing websites…that would use SharedWorkers if they were brought back, or which currently use SharedWorkers in other browsers?

We're using a shared worker process to share a single web socket connection across all browser tabs on the github.com origin. We've been using a one-socket-per-tab implementation for years, but open TCP sockets have finally become a bottleneck in our infrastructure.

We still connect an individual socket in each Safari tab because it doesn't support the SharedWorker API. We would like to use the worker in all browsers, though.
