Wow, #449734 [Core:Document Navigation]-Preserve plugin state when dragging a tab between browser windows [All] is really brilliant. If multiselecting of tabs gets in as well, window management will be a lot better.

700 MB of RAM usage in yesterday's build. In today's one 192 MB. WTF?

Edit: 211 MB... growing up.

For over a week on initial load the browser will run really really slow for the first 10 seconds, my HDD light will also be on during this time. I think it started since the cache size stuff landed.

David Baron landed something about reducing the size of CSS rules in memory which should lead to some reduction in memory usage, though I am not sure how extreme.

I'm not sure to or not to file a bug for this?

Idea is to make space around hover link in url bar yellow so it would indicate that link is ready to be clicked. (like traffic light) .

Not related to JS but in general. While i think performance has been improved somewhat compare to 3.6, i still dont consider it being Snappy like Chrome and Opera.

Maybe it's just me but today's build seems a helluva lot speedier.

It has to be just you because nothing landed that would cause it to be faster, only a CSS memory bug, but that shouldn't be anything noticeable.

For each of your browser windows, open "View --> Tab" Groups and check to see if you have any hidden tabs. It could be that you have tabs that are not part of your visible group. They get loaded regardless. Bug 595601 will correct this.

That could get very distracting and irritating, if it's flashing as you move your mouse over a bunch of links on a page. The mouse pointer changing to a hand already accomplishes this for most types of links.
