    OK, perfect ! Happy with these further improvements, but the great thing is the Back-forward cache flag, which is really handy.

      Impressive performance for the world's favorite private data slurper and ad slinger.

        Though they hide it behind feature flags, Firefox's hardware acceleration for video also works well. I'm running it natively under Wayland and decoding vp9 video with Firefox using 6% cpu. It's been a great experience so it's a bit of a shame not to have it out of the box.

          > "saves over 17 years of CPU time daily"

          What does that even mean? The most you can save a day is 24 hours. where are the other 16 years and 364 days coming from?

            Firefox cannot compete with Chrome. Why is it so mediocre?

              Just a wild guess:

              In the most recently reported fiscal year, Google's revenue amounted to 181.69 billion US dollars.
              "In CY ((calendar year)) 2019, Mozilla Corporation generated $465M from royalties, subscriptions and advertising revenue, excluding one-time litigation settlement revenue,"

                5.5 seconds of CPU time per day, times 100 million users. Or whatever numbers they are plugging in.

                  Interesting. Would be interesting to know how many people have benefited from that amount of financial resoruces and how many others have lost the same amount of financial means.

                    Yeah, and at the same time you lose millennia while decoding videos on those CPUs. Any crappy PC or even portables like the PSP could decode YouTube on hardware back in early 2000s, then came google and changed codecs to some crappy vp8 .../QUOTE]

                    Lmao vp9 is objectively superior to h264 and mpeg stuff in every single way. Not to mention open source and patent troll free. Classic case of old man yelling at the sky.

                      Maybe not so much difference on Wayland, but on X11, Chromium-based browsers are way faster for me than Firefox. Clean profile and everything.
