17:26:59 on my end, Win7, FF 99 is extremely slow to start up - compared to FF 98 & earlier 17:30:21 Safe Mode is faster, but it's hard to say if it might be "pre-loading" or not ? because even though you supply a -safe-mode command line switch, it STILL prompts you with a dialog box with an Open button before FF actually loads. (now isn't that smart) 17:32:12 disabling hardware acceleration makes no difference 17:45:14 therube wrong channel :) 17:45:51 yeah, i know. just babbling... 17:46:50 therube With webrender they are now running into probably every driver issue which exists so make sure you have the latest drivers. 17:47:42 I also think I saw a new Intel block for HD 3000 or earlier but that was for 8.1 if I am not mistaken. 17:50:08 gfx.webrender.all, true or false, makes no difference. 17:50:51 this contraption here has Intel HD 4000 (& or, maybe, not sure, AMD HD 7650A) 17:52:22 about:support indicates its using hd4000 18:01:04 therube was for 100 not 99: Bug 1761332 18:01:24 Bug 1760464 and also 8 not 7 18:12:01 frg_Away: nightly (101a) loads fine. suggestion as to what i might tweak for 99 ? 18:12:28 fission.autostart;false did not help. 18:13:50 therube I do not have a recent Firefox installed. Only version from our 2.53 tree for a/b testing. Sorry can't help. That was the only bug I noticed. 18:22:49 oops. i was wrong (or it changed). FF nightly too is slow to start up. 18:24:20 media.gmp-gmpopenh264 got "installed" between "then" & now. 18:25:41 no difference. 18:26:56 therube well I rather turn the "helpful" new features off which now pop up with every new version of CrEdge. At least I know this one is crap but at least it works with incompatible sites. 18:33:45 therube I also saw an awful lot of patches for pushing advertizing stuff to raise money and experiments. Didn't look a the details. Check if some system add-ons or other stuff gobbles up network bandwidth at start to populate the newtab crap. 18:34:37 yeah, i believe i turned all that crap off, from the get-go (using new profiles all around) 20:37:17 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1763703 20:58:32 Bill did an early 2.53.13b1 pre build today so if you have a website which is broken because of the missing nullish coalesce operator support (??) in earlier versions please test. 21:23:09 builds are at https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/nightly/ like it says in the topic.
