The best I ever did for performance was switching away from macOS. Sure, Safari and Chrome is really fast on Mac hardware/macOS, but nothing beats the performance of Firefox on Linux.
- 1_player 6y agoSure, and FF for Linux was always second to FF for Windows, where the experience was better than both platforms. On Linux hardware accel is still iffy, on macOS they implemented support for CoreAnimation one or two years ago, and still looks out of place with the rest of the OS.

- 1_player 6y agoGood or bad specced machine, it's fun seeing the Firefox process use 150% CPU when playing a 4K video with no hardware acceleration. Meanwhile it uses 15% CPU on Windows. Might be my underpowered 10900K or $1500 GPU.
