- MBCook 9y agoIf they could only get near-Chrome speeds with significantly better battery impact that would also be a huge win.
- Ygg2 9y agoServo's multi threading actually improves battery life. Not sure how that translates to Firefox.
- rdiddly 9y agoRight, and even if its latency is, say 1.5X that of Chrome(1), it's still better, for the same reason. (1) Though I'm sure it's better than that.
- StavrosK 9y agoThat's why I've kept using it despite the slowness, but it's certainly great that now the lag is 0.9x that of Chrome!
- bigbugbag 9y agowhat do you mean privacy concerns ? firefox is far from being a privacy browser outside of marketing. Also chrome has had privacy oriented counterpart since the early days such as srware iron[1]. [1]:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRWare_Iron https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRWare_Iron
