Firefox has hundreds of developers. I don’t understand why performance isn’t on par with Chrome. I try my best to use Firefox to bring support, but sometimes I just have to switch back when things get too laggy.
I’m sorry, but I only have 8 hours a day, and I’m not going to let my productivity flow get ruined.
- dyingkneepad 6y agoWhat are you using that makes the performance difference be even noticeable? With the exception of cases where Firefox is absolutely broken, for me it's good enough. Or when I had crappy extensions, have you tried disabling extensions? I only have uBlock Origin and Firefox Containers these days. It does sadden me that some sites are starting to refuse to work with Firefox these days... But I won't give up.
- shaicoleman 6y agoFor me, Google Maps/Apple Maps (on DuckDuckGo) are painfully laggy on Firefox/Linux, even after force enabling all the GPU acceleration options. OpenStreetMap works fine, though. That said, Google has a long history of making their products glitchy on Firefox, so not sure it's all Firefox's fault. https://www.zdnet.com/article/former-mozilla-exec-google-has-sabotaged-firefox-for-years/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/former-mozilla-exec-google-has...
- sleepless 6y agoDo you have numbers for this claim? Looking at https://www.anandtech.com/show/16078/the-2020-browser-battle-surfing-with-speed/2 https://www.anandtech.com/show/16078/the-2020-browser-battle... your statement does not match the test results. In which cases are things getting laggy for you?
- Tagbert 6y agoAre you using Webrender with Firefox? It’s off by default but once I turned it on, it sped up FF significantly. No beta issues so far.
