Regarding PGO benefits for Firefox, there is a thread: https://groups.google.com/g/mozilla.dev.platform/c/wwO48xXFx0A/m/ztg4i0DYAAAJ that shows measurable improvements from PGO. Anyway, since the issue is quite old. Is PGO still disabled for Firefox in Ubuntu repositories?

Chris - thanks for your efforts on this.
