" As we all know, Chrome isn’t actually a whole lot faster than Firefox, it just feels snappier — something Mozilla no doubt wants to emulate."

I'm glad they're focusing on memory. Better late than never but I see frequent claims similar to these that Chrome isn't that much better or might have a slight advantage which we will catch up soon, blah blah blah.

C'mon guys. When's the last time Firefox put Chrome on the offensive. Playing catchup leaves you several steps behind. When FF7 rolls out next month or whenever this new release cycle comes Chrome might be even faster and snappier.

I still remember when I switched from IE to FF. It was faster, lighter and had more innovative features. Suddenly the web got more exciting. It's the same feeling I had using Chrome only they never dipped below that initial experience.

FF right now is like Elvis' jumpsuit era. Out of shape, lost, struggling with identity, and now about to go on Celebrity Fit Club.

FF is still my primary browser but only for the extensions.

Panorama and GPU acceleration for Firefox 4 come to mind.
