The latest version of the Mozilla Foundation's browser, released Tuesday, is all about performance. Firefox is twice as fast as it was a year ago, Mozilla claimed. It is not only fast on startup -- it remains zippy even when taxed by multitudes of tabs.
New version releases of browsers don't get the buzz they used to get, but Firefox Quantum is an exception.
"We have a better balance of memory to performance than all the other browsers," said Firefox Vice President for Product Nick Nguyen.
The performance improvements in Quantum could be a drink from the fountain of youth for many Firefox users' systems.
The performance boost could be appealing to other users too.
The challenge will be to win back users who defected to Chrome -- beyond those philosophically opposed to Google
The new Firefox Quantum is considerably faster, which was a major problem for the old Firefox.
