New issue by noarchwastaken on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/39652
Description:
### Is this a new report?
Yes
### System Info
Void 5.19.10_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrmFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
### Package(s) Affected
firefox-105.0.1_1
### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?
_No response_
### Expected behaviour
The `firefox` package should run about as fast as the one from mozilla.org.
### Actual behaviour
I tested the two different builds of Firefox:
- With entirely new profiles
- With my daily profile that has anti-fingerprinting tweaks and loaded with addons
And the package from Void repository runs consistently slower than the "Official" release, both in synthetic benchmarks:
and in subjective terms, such as pages loading slower.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Install Firefox from the `firefox` package as well as from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release
2. Browse the web and pay attention to performance differences

(both tested with my default fat profile)
I personally don't notice the difference in day to day use, and this is my main browser (in this day and age, that means most of my computer use happens in it) and it has a nice bag of plugins.
I guess there is some difference, but I am not sure what/how to investigate.

Yes, we don't have enough build resources to do profile guided optimizations.
