I switched over to the x64 on my office computer about a year ago, then did the same on my personal computer shortly after. My personal computer is somewhat more powerful than my office computer, so I didn't notice the performance issues quite as rapidly as I did at the office.
FWIW, I'm not utilizing the ESR code-base at the current time on either my home or office machines, but am strongly leaning toward that as the replacement browser in our resource-constrained labs. It will be interesting to test because those machines are still 32-bit O/S. Those RAM numbers are based on 58.0.2 x64 with Adblock Plus, Forecastfox (fix version), and Kee. Yes, I know that ABP is a resource hog, but with my testing, removing it didn't make the resource/freezing problem go away. In fact, the extra multimedia and advertisements caused the opposite - FF ran worse with all the extra website advertisement goodness loaded. I'm happy to entertain any further questions regarding my experiences. Stephen On 2/28/2018 11:06 AM, Peter Saint-Andre wrote: Have you experimented with Quantum (FF 57+) on another machine perhaps? The main point of Quantum was to improve performance, but it would be impossible to backport that work to the current ESR codebase. (FWIW I'm running 1 FF Nightly window with 300+ tabs open, using ~1048MB RAM.)
