My Browser Builds (Part 2)

What good is a browser that renders pages in 100 milliseconds if it takes 10 seconds for the GUI to load? 

That is what I want -- To render page and switch between tabs fast, but the loading time is not important, for I always have the browser open, even for weeks. I do not like to close it and open it again, unless it crashes (very rarely), or I need more free memory to run another big program. I'd like to know if there is any program that could measure the time of rendering page and switching tabs.

I don't know about for SWITCHING tabs.

My issue has more been about CLOSING tabs - especially for very long browsing sessions like you mention versus opening-and-closing the browser for new sessions.

Others have posted it also over the years - I really dislike clicking the X on a tab then sitting there and waiting 2 to 4 seconds for the tab to close!

This was my biggest issue with NM28 and it is one of several reasons why I prefer NM27.

I have not ran Serpent in any very long browsing session to test if this is an issue with Serpent.

I am also unaware if it is "still" an issue with NM28 - perhaps others that have reported it in the past will chime in if it is still an issue.

 

I am also open for "better" ways to test page rendering.

What I used for the below is the Status-4-Evar and PageTimerLite add-ons.

NM27 barely beats Serpent from what I see here  --  I did three page loads and posted the averages.

I searched the add-ons you mentioned but found PageTimerLite is nowhere to be downloaded. So I did some google and found AppTelemetry, and the treasure in the browser itself: ctrl+shift+Q.

A sample result of this page:

1.PNG p. s. The time meaningful for comparison speed of browsers, I think, is "Processing duration", which in above picture is 17184 ms, for that does not include network transmission time.

I do notice sluggish performance of the NM28 browser after a longer session, as if some tabs are still open in the background, consuming memory and CPU time. What sort of plugins is the "plugin container" supposed to handle? Flash is almost never used anymore, and the other plugin I have is PDF-Xchange, which also almost never open.

Old bugs inherited from the old Firefox codebase that appear to have been fixed in later official Firefox releases.

All NPAPI plugins, the list is on about:plugins and about:addons pages (under Plugins on the latter).

Sweet!  I like it, didn't know it was there!

Has proven rather interesting.  NM27 still clobbers Serpent.

Need to be careful though, some websites serve different content to different browsers so this table ensures that each browser was served the same "total requests" and "transferred size".

 

I included "Site H" for an intriguing reference (I found over a dozen sites that basically did the same thing).

The two web browsers on the same exact site had 203 requests in Serpent but only 109 requests in NM27.

You place one on one monitor and the other on the other monitor, scroll through each very carefully, and you can NOT find any DIFFERENCE between the two "renderings".

One took 40 seconds to load, the other only took 6 seconds.

One has 62 js files, the other has only 32 js files - but again NO VISUAL DIFFERENCE between the two!

One says 79 images, the other says only 42 images - but again scroll carefully and NO VISUAL DIFFERENCE between the two!

I haven't really dug deeper as to seek out any root cause for such a GIGANTIC difference when the two look IDENTICAL.

My changes since my last build:
- Reverted Issue UXP#1694 and Basilisk#31 related changes

Many thanks for this new batch of UXP-based forks! :wub:
I, for one, am not taking these builds of yours for granted, they do require dedication and considerable effort on your part (despite "upstream" :angry: constantly belittling your offerings as being just "hackjobs" ... ).

Be that as it may, might I also kindly ask why the official UXP issue #1694,

https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/issues/1694

and official Bk issue #31,

https://repo.palemoon.org/moonchildproductions/basilisk/issues/31

were backed-out from your custom UXP branch? :dubbio:

The thing is I was actually following closely the original report in the official forums,

https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=25728

and immediately thought that would be a favourable change to implement; after all, MCP would just be restoring what was already extant in Mozilla v51.0 and later broken by Mozilla devs :realmad: in v52.0 of their platform...

E.g. my (custom) date/time format configuration in my system is "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm"; New Moon 28 respects that setting,

iewZiYQ.jpg

because, while the platform code is a Mozilla v52.6 fork, the application code itself is a Firefox < 52.0 fork, so not affected...

OTOH, latest Serpent 52.9.0 does not respect my custom date/time format OS configuration,

QlQEdxB.jpg

because both app+platform code are Mozilla v52.6 forks and inherit the Mozilla caused breakage,,, :(

As a result, Serpent displays date/time in a non-user-configurable US+12h clock format "M/d/yyyy, h:mm tt" :( ; me personally, I would have liked uniformity between NM28 and St52; what do other members here think?

For the record, Mozilla, in later versions of their Firefox browser, tied date/time display to browser locale being used, but even then, the display format is fixed/non-configurable... :} With Serpent 52.9.0 (and now, sadly, NM28 too...) being only an en-US localised app, this is a moot point...

This is just a thought, but perhaps issues UXP#1694 + Bk#31 could be implemented in our tree behind a user (i.e. about:config) pref? ...

Kindest, warmest greetings! :)
