[firefox] javascript very slow with latest firefox package

Postby BetaPictoris » Mon Jan 09, 2017 9:16 pm

Hi all, :)

Hardware: Raspberry pi 3

Latest firefox package (50.1.0) is, now, very fast (and far better than chromium) for browsing on many sites, but I have noticed it is slow when there is a lot of javascript code to run.
So, I run octane 2.0 benchmark and i got a score of 94 ! :shock:
For information, with previous package or with raspbian, firefox score is around of 3000.

Electrolysis is enable but it seems javascript is working on one thread. It is very strange.

Have you noticed this issue ?

Do you know if there is some values to modify in about:config for changing this behavior ?

Ok, I think it is because of "--disable-ion" build option I can see in about:buildconfig.
