Yes. But I'm mostly pissed that Canonical knowingly introduces this regression, without some kind of opt-in. And then incrementally starts fixing it. While technically we all know if will always be slower then it was and take up more disk space.

This causes the startup time for Firefox to roughly double. This is particularly noticeable on computers that were already not the fastest. In my case brainwashed ex-Chromebook Acer C720P (Intel Celeron 2955U @ 1.40GHz, with SSD) 8sec -> 15sec. This really is an unnecessary regression as snaps bring the user no advantage. In particular, for a typical notebook Firefox might arguably be the most used package and forcing users to a snapped version of Firefox without fallback leaves an overall perception of Ubuntu Jellyfish being slow.
