    lower RAM usage is great, but not being forced to restart Firefox after being updated by a package manager sounds so nice!

    most gui apps need restart, certainly hugely complex 'os' like browsers. in theory you can do something like live patching but it probably isn't worth the effort with session restore.

    Edit: misunderstood 'forced'

    Good improvements, looking forward to it being somewhat on par with Chromium some time in the future as well. I hope there are efforts to make this happen.
