Firefox's benchmark score has improved by 50% in less than a year, and it is actually 15% faster in one year.
Mozilla, which develops the web browser ``Firefox'' which is being pushed down by Chrome and Edge, has revealed that Firefox's benchmark score has improved by 50% in less than a year.

Mozilla is working to improve the user experience of Firefox, collecting information such as page loading speed, response speed, and startup speed of users, in an effort to provide a superior experience to a wide range of users.
As a result of tests conducted by Mozilla using Speedometer 2.1, a benchmark that simulates browser responsiveness, Firefox's score has increased by 50% since January 2023, resulting in significant performance improvements for users. It seems that it has become clear.
The Speedometer 2.1 test is only a simulation, so we cannot measure how much improved scores actually improve the user experience. Therefore, Mozilla indirectly established performance indicators for several items based on the data collected to improve performance.
The results of First Contentful Paint (FCP), one of the survey items, are as follows. This is an indication of how quickly the page returns to the user the fact that it has successfully loaded. The response speed, which was 260 milliseconds as of January 2023, decreased to less than 220 milliseconds as of the end of October, indicating an approximately 15% increase in speed.
Below is a graph showing the time spent executing JavaScript during page load. It seems like it decreased by about 350 milliseconds in 9 months.
What happens after the page actually loads is also important. The following shows the wait time when pressing a key after the page is loaded. After hovering around 65ms for most of the year, the speed dropped to less than 59ms after the release of
'We are confident that our efforts in 2023 will have a positive impact on Firefox users,' Mozilla said in a statement. 'We have many more optimizations in the works. Stay tuned for more details and progress. I plan to share it in a post.'
