With respect it's not the job of the user to be an expert in the architecture of your application. The fact you won't admit there are problems identifies a real with issue with your organization. Firefox is slow, I don't know why. I was hoping the engineers working on it would know - it's scary that they do not.

So you don't know what the performance problems in Firefox are, but you're confident that the solution has to be a short-term fix in the existing C++ codebase. Do you realize why that does not make sense?

  I suppose a better question is how did the existing code base get this bad? I work on a product 10 years older than FireFox and we've been able to make do with upgrades in place. Over time large pieces of architecture change. The difference is our customers see improvements over time not large periods of stagnation.

    That is exactly what is happening with Firefox.

      From the outside it doesn't look like it. That's all I'm saying - Chrome is pulling way ahead to the point I have to use it on all but my most powerful machines.
