![]() ![]() Typically only an ad blocker (custom hosts file recommended) and script blocker (noscript/umatrix) are all that's needed for a pleasant experience. I'd only suggest experimenting with prefs if you have a slow machine that struggles, otherwise the default settings are default for a reason. #Greasemonkey pale moon codeIt's close because it's based on mozilla code, but there are thousands if not millions of lines of code different between the two. As mentioned in an old post awhile back, don't try to tweak AF's prefs with Firefox tweaks. Those machines are more than powerful enough that they don't need the extra help. On intel there is really is no reason to tweak anything. I personally don't change anything (except maybe a user agent override) from default on those browsers and have no issues. The PM dev team already tweaked the stock prefs file to work best with these changes. They are all based on Pale Moon code, therefor they are not firefox. I would advise against any messing around in about:config and/or using an additional prefs file when it comes to AF, SW or IW browsers. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. foxPEP should work much better with it than the latter. I would say maybe try TenFourFox FPR23 instead of Arctic Fox. It was my fault to recommend foxPEP with that. Every browser on every platform I've ever tested, including AF on SL, has never crashed at a YouTube video, and by all accounts have been much improved with zero drawbacks. It was my fault to recommend foxPEP for Arctic Fox. foxPEP should work better with it than the latter. Assuming it was not the cause of the crash, if you set to false in about:config, you should still be able to get the smoother video playback (720p) nonetheless. Go ahead and remove the patch, and make a new preferences file. My best guess is that Arctic Fox is so niche of an implementation and is such a rapidly aging Frankenstein of a browser, it (the latest version, at least) cannot handle whatever kind of reasonable load it has to deal with when modified, self evidenced by its crashing and freezing on many different SL installs (many times I've experienced myself) even when in a totally stock state. Scanning through 1.9.2's engine configuration, I could find nothing that should ever cause that to happen. Especially when said user is then consequentially allowed access to a much broader range of hardware than just those that are PowerPC-based, in return benefiting more from the patch, and vice-versa.Īll things considered, I think that is no doubt a better strategy for both parties in the long Well. #Greasemonkey pale moon fullSo when you start including comparatively limitless environments like Windows, Linux, and macOS with a plentiful selection of non-gimped, full-throttle browsers into the question that are able to take full advantage of what's on offer, the situation suddenly becomes a lot less bleak to the developer, and a lot more attractive to the end user. Given the above, it's no wonder that foxPEP provides a comparable speed to Erik's tweaks for those who have tried both on the same gimped browser, evidenced by the recently uploaded benchmarks. TenFourFox is bloated and CPU-bound, Arctic Fox for PPC OS X is half-broken, SpiderWeb and InterWeb on Linux break in half when GPU acceleration is enabled, and from what I remember using, Arctic Fox on Linux and 10.6 have strange implementations of certain content rendering features that do not match 1:1 with other browsers (which often leads to unexpected behavior during testing).įrom the best of my observation, the issue is not necessarily that the techniques employed in the script are unsupported by Gecko and Goanna, but that they leverage the ( very) modern frameworks of Servo in a way that Firefox Quantum is currently the only browser to really take full advantage of, hence the much faster return on performance with foxPEP installed there as opposed to most other places. I've been considering moving this thread over to the General Discussion subforum, given the state of the browsers available to PowerPC, and what that means for optimization projects like foxPEP. ![]()
