I can’t say I’ve had the same experience. I am running FF now, and it is taking 2% of my memory and 0.2% CPU. Never had any crazy web script issues either.
Wow! Is the software you use a reflection of your beliefs? :-)
I know I am quite a singular fellow in the way I use my device, it is very customized.
No problems with DPI settings. My issue is that, since I can always zoom in but not zoom out, to me having to deal with a big font or forcefully zoomed in content is absurd.
Recently I needed to manipulate my user agent because the communicator that my employer chose refuses to work with anything older than 60. I have 17 addons and at least 3 still can’t be ported.
Though by manually editing css I could replace one of them. Except….that stuff is completely undocumented, has a steep learning curve and FF gives 0 guaranties that they won’t change it at any moment they like.
To me being able to customize user agent is another requirement. Chrome does not oficially supports this but of course I enforce it by script and special data/local/chrome-command-line file.
