Title:
"Ubuntu modification" extension default package disables Multiprocess
in Firefox
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in ubufox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Firefox has started making the default state to Multiprocess starting
with Firefox 48. Right now, at least half the Firefox users have
Multiprocess enabled by default and the performance and stability
benefits are quite substantial. More about Multiprocess here -
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/multiprocess
The Ubufox extension that comes installed by default in Ubuntu's
Firefox disables Multiprocess, due it not being compatible with it
(check attachment). This leads to all Ubuntu users not benefiting from
the performance benefits of Firefox multiprocess architecture and also
the ever increasing benefits as they keep improving it.
