Spidermonkey has passed V8 on Octane performance
I have been very impressed by Firefox lately. Kudos to the whole team at Mozilla.<p>Just about 5 years ago, it was looking to me like it was the end of Firefox. It was Chrome all the way. New features were coming out one after another. Faster rendering. Safe process isolation for each tab. Looked better.<p>But I just switched back last month. It happened kind of randomly. Saw an announcement of a new release (  33, I think ), downloaded, re-imported my bookmarks from Chrome and just kind of kept using it instead of Chrome since then.<p>I like how the tabs look also I think it feels lighter and snappier on my (now old-ish) laptop.
