I have a retina display and I'm using Firefox right now with 5 tabs open. Working fine for me!

Do you use scaled resolution? It seems the bug is Retina + scaled resolution which is a default on some Macbooks.

150 tabs here, lol.

But it is true that for some users Firefox on retina is barely usable. It is a confirmed bug.

I think if you have a 2 core 2015 13" macbook it's slow. If you have a 4 core 2015 15" macbook or better then you are fine with firefox.

Unless you have other software running, in my case. The Docker for MAC VM idles at 80% CPU (obviously not FF’s fault).
