In Waterfox and Firefox, I force-enabled hardware acceleration, which is off by default on Linux. Right now, I ran with new profiles on each browser. I think I may have tried with and without addons when I first ran this “shootout” right after Firefox Quantum landed, but it’s been a while, and memory fades. That’s pretty sloppy, really, as there’s no way to know how much of the browser differences is from the browsers themselves and how much is the addons. I used the same addons on each one where possible, and the closest ones I could find if the same one was not available for other platforms (webextensions or Chrome). ![]() Previously, if I remember, I ran each test with the browser configured as I would use it, with the full complement of addons. In another thread in this forum, I mentioned my previous browser benchmarks, and I said there that I thought I’d try them again.
