Have you tested both side by side ?

This is what I am getting in my system with 10 tabs(same content loaded on both browser with all extensions disabled) tested with different DDF threads



Definitely improvement in RAM usage by firefox though using multi-process like chromium but high CPU which will lead to less battery

Page loading time is still better in Chrome bro. You can clock the time. I don't care about RAM because I have 16gb machine.

Damn this version is so cool, what engine is this ? Earlier I had switched to Opera but now back to FF after this version.
In version 56 it used to consume around 450 MB for just 1 tab of DDF.
