Comment:
For review: https://github.com/acatarineu/tor-browser/commit/13543
This should skip checking for hardware acceleration or performing a
benchmark when RFP is enabled, and always set `smooth = true` and
`powerEfficient = true` instead. I only modified one case, since AFAIK
it's the only one where the value `smooth` or `powerEfficient` depend on
hardware capabilities.
The intent was to implement the solution mentioned in
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1461454#c6.
