This is probably forcing something (webgl?) to fall back to slower software rendering. > Second one entry I saw for the first time; log entry concerns, for example, > "/proc/3304/net/arp" and so on. Here is an example: This is from a new feature in Firefox: netid. https://bug1240932.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8709691 I have trouble understanding the document, but I think it's so that they can perform better caching and cookie handling when firefox migrates between networks. It looks like this would let them know that www.google.com when resolved in a captive wifi network may give different results than www.google.com when on different networks, and not allow caching and security information from one network taint the results from other networks.
