This is the same kind of shit many software product do by loading their product at startup, their product starts instantaneously. They don't care that it takes up memory, slows startup times, bogs down the computer in general. Another way Mozilla is trying to cheat browser tests at the cost of users. They also sneakily delay loading of certain websites. While I despise these websites, I already have a way of dealing with them by blocking them altogether(no thanks to Mozilla) but Mozilla wants to cheat so that people will think Firefox is fast. Next, they'll load Firefox on startup but keep it hidden. When you "start" it, it appears instantly. Wow. Faster the Chrome. This is also the same kind of shit that pushes users to throw PCs away because it can't handle newer much more bloated software. Thanks for the extra bloat Mozilla, you bunch of slimy cheaters.

- pcwalton 9y agoThere aren't any artificial benchmarks I'm aware of that would benefit from this feature.
