Not sure if placebo but firefox nightly 70 is a looot more snappier than 69.

Now I regret chrome almost not at all.

Thanks for the hard work to all involved.

That's placebo -- Nightly is built from our trunk. The only thing that changes between Nightly 69 and Nightly 70 is a version bump.
no it's not something is definitely different somewhere, maybe a different config/default or reset, everything is snappier and my cpu is reaching 95+ degC while it never reached 80 before 70.

Or maybe it's a different rendering library / os / gpu driver interaction.

Maybe you crossed into having webrender enabled for your system?
