How much faster is it for you guys? I legitimately can not tell the difference.

I find them to be close enough to imperceptible for just normal html and css etc.

The stumbling block for me as FireFox user is I am increasingly bumping into web apps that preform poorly in FF but are fine in Chrome for one reason or another. One instance I bump into a lot is ElasticSearches Kibana runs like trash in FF for some reason.

It sounds like the old "nobody uses Firefox because nobody tests on Firefox because nobody uses Firefox" vicious cycle, unfortunately.

I am guessing performance differences might be masked by good hardware? Sometimes performance differences don't show up until you use an underpowered machine.

I don't think it's just that. I have a half-dead Chromebook with linux, and I use Firefox on it. Some years back I ran Chrome on it because it worked better, but at some point I started seeing issues with Chrome and tried Firefox again. I've been using Firefox since.
