For the RC build, we landed a few last minutes changes. We disabled <meta referrer> because of a last minute issue, we landed a compatibility fix for addons and, last but not least, some graphic crash fixes.

Yes Edds. Terrible lag for me, also. Just received another update, so maybe I'm running RC2?

Horrible lag on latest Nightly compared to IE 11 which is fast and fluid on my machine. Nightly looks like stop-action slow-mo

Go figure :-k , http://spielzeugz.de/html5/liquid-particles.html ...compared to Fx36 IE11's incredibly sluggish here.

Stupid browsers and computers - on my Google Chrome 42.0.2305.3 Dev version its fluid and fast like IE 11.
