Thought I'd never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There's also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

What does speed mean in this regard? Download speed?

JS Render speed, so in past website like facebook, new.reddit.com, discourse based forum, etc that rely heavily in JS, now load and render faster in Firefox than ever

Oh, well that's good. I've never thought Firefox took too long to load but I'm happy with shit being faster.

For anyone else wondering, I'm assuming they're talking about JavaScript.
