> Firefox is way slower when it comes to Javascript execution than Chrome

If you have specific pages where you're seeing this, please file bugs on Firefox and add "bzbarsky" to the cc list for the bug!

Thanks for reaching out; will do if I encounter a case. I don't run Chrome daily, and my personal experience with Firefox is good, including with "big webapps" like Atlassian products (JIRA, Confluence), but I often read the comment that "big pages/webapps" are faster on Chrome than Firefox.

See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12794971 for examples of such talk, but it's rarely precise enough to file a bug :/

Right, that's my issue. People keep claiming something is slow, but when I ask for an actual example they almost never come up with one, so I can't profile and fix it... ;)
