Rich, Seems ok here on my box- nary a CPU blip in gkrellm. I was able to load a heavy site and saw chromium-ungoogle pop up to ~18% briefly and drop back once the page loaded (via htop). I have a AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core. I don't have Brave. I had not yet imported Firefox bookmarks, so did, and was successful. They did not show up in the main bookmark panel You may want to open the bookmark menu or bookmark manager and look for "Imported from..." -Ed
