I'm so happy to read this and all I can say is I hope they succeed - the faster, the better. I used to run Firefox and loved it so much, but it started falling behind in performance so much that I had to switch out of necessity. I haven't really seen it improve much over the years. On the contrary, Safari, while it always felt a bit slower than Chrome, is feeling faster and faster with each update. Working at a company where I occasionally create presentational sites, I often have to create and optimise animations that some designer thought would be so very radical and the two browsers that are extremely painful to support are usually Firefox and Internet Edge-splorer (pardon the pun). I have animations that run at a smooth 60fps in Chrome and Safari effortlessly, quite often producing 1-2 FPS in Firefox. Their updates are quite weird too, between the last 3 updates, I've seen the project I was working on run bad enough that I had to fallback to the mobile-lite version on FF to running acceptably (30+ fps) to running like crap again. And maybe we'll see 16 year old style rendering bugs get fixed finally, too? Please, pretty, please? After ripping on it a bit, tho, I have to say: I'm looking forward to running Firefox again in the future, as much as I like Safari at the moment, it's closed source and I don't like being exposed to Apple's whims (especially lately), where if they decide to destroy by making it unusable I'm left out to dry and quite frankly Google Chrome just creeps me out now.
