    “Around 230MB less RAM was consumed while running the Speedometer 3.1 benchmark. While ~230MB may not seem like a lot, this was just a simple single-tab test case and likely to be compounded with more common use-cases of multiple tabs across the span of hours of use.”

    Firefox 141.0 also no longer requires a forced restart after an update has been applied by a package manager.

    As an Archlinux based user, I appreciate this.
