Firefox 69 Beta On Linux Bringing Better Performance

The ARES-6 benchmark shows some improvements with the new Firefox 68 stable compared to Firefox 67 but with Firefox 69 the performance has improved even more. Obviously in the synthetic JavaScript tests like ARES-6 not really changing around the layout of the web-page, WebRender doesn't really yield any performance difference when just exercising the JavaScript engine.

Octane was one of the few benchmarks showing the Firefox 69.0 performance pulling back compared to 68/67 releases.

The WebXPRT performance meanwhile was flat along with Basemark.
