Which tools and which versions of browsers are you comparing? I guess as a developer you would be using Canary Chrome vs. Nightly Firefox, to get the latest features, right?

I find Firefox less resource-hungry and with the WebIDE and Code Snippets that don't need to import/export to devtools source snippets it might even be ahead of Chrome.

Not always. As a developer I use the latest stable Firefox, since that's what I can recommend to my users.

you have to do testing in released browsers, of course, but you wouldn't get the latest devtools features that way, neither in firefox nor in chrome.
