I don't know if it's known, so I'm just going to throw that here for the curious. I see a significant performance improvement in Nightly versus Firefox 54.

Page load speed (with uBO legacy + default settings)[1]:

https ://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_country_calling_codes
Firefox 54: 1,071 ms
Nightly: 694 ms

https ://www.wired.com/
Firefox 54: 3,341 ms
Nightly: 2,321 ms

I don't at which point this happened, probably the result of many different performance issues being addressed over time.

Here is something that I cannot figure out. I have Nightly installed on 2 computers. AFAIK-Their settings are the same. However, I can install Feedly - Beyond Google Reader on one computer, but the other stubbornly refuses claiming the addon is incompatible with the browser. Is there some additional pref that I am missing or forgetting about that is causing this? (I have NTT installed and using it to force extension compatibility.)

Have you tried with extensions.allow-non-mpc-extensions -> true ?
