/me remembers how fast FF was compared to IE 'back in the days'.
- Suro 9y agoWell, bear in mind that websites was way simpler to render for a browser back then.
- moosingin3space 9y agoAlso keep in mind that Mozilla is researching better rendering methods through the Quantum project. The potential boost will be huge -- CSS styling and compositing will be faster, JS code that interacts with the DOM will be faster, etc. I'm very excited about Quantum CSS and Quantum DOM landing.
