Even after closing about:processes (leaving no tabs open), down in the background processes section of the Windows Task Manager Firefox Nightly still consumed 30% of the CPU until I used the Windows Task manager to cancel Firefox Nightly (then being only the main task). I closed down all the tabs except for about:processes, Nightly continued to consume 30% CPU. about:performance looked normal without any signs of high activity, but about:processes shows Nightly consuming 100% CPU, and the long line immediately under that line includes 'Socket Thread:99.3%' (the number bounces around 95.8% through 99.6%). I tried to go to (a bookmarked link) and Nightly went into about 30% CPU usage (4 cores, so this is equivalent to a bit more than one core). (I was away from the computer for a while, and came back to it at about 30 minutes after midnight.)

Report bugs in software WebRender blocking the sw-wr-dogfood bug under Core : Graphics : WebRender. If you are experiencing performance issues, please include a Firefox profile in your report. This will replace the existing Basic renderer in future versions of Firefox, as WebRender continues to be rolled out to more of the Firefox population.Дevelopers are looking for issues with stability, painting glitches or errors, and noticeable performance issues with page interaction and scrolling. You can try out the software fallback for WebRender for devices that will not get accelerated WebRender support.

Please do not post about issues to Mozilla Support If you have issues, report them to Bugzilla instead. Things to try out in Nightly Please do not edit about:config unless you are willing to deal with bugs. You can use Firefox Sync to keep your settings in sync across release channels. We get the newest features first, and developers generally listen when we give feedback (since they are generally still working on the features, instead of hearing about it months later once it hits stable).Дon't reuse your old profile folder - Firefox Nightly uses different profiles than stable or beta by default, so you can run Nightly and other versions concurrently. If you aren't already using Firefox Nightly, you should join us on the wild side.

Needless to say, you can still download files flagged by Smart Screen by simply turning to a different browser or by just clicking the вЂњDownload unsafe fileвЂќ whenever you see the warning.Please use this thread to discuss the latest nightly builds. So if anything, it was just an error that Microsoft corrected pretty fast, and the impact was likely pretty low.

So no, itвЂ™s not Microsoft blocking the download of Firefox Nightly, but Smart Screen that tries to protect users from downloading potentially dangerous software by mistakenly flagging the experimental version of MozillaвЂ™s browser as a threat.ДЄnd most likely, this happens because Firefox Nightly is not commonly-used software, so Smart Screen just blocked it to make sure users are protected.ДЄt the same time, it looks like the whole thing has already been resolved, as I just tried to download Firefox Nightly on my up-to-date Windows 10 system and everything is working properly.

So at some level, itвЂ™s not hard to figure out why Firefox diehard fans think of all kinds of malicious plots put together by Microsoft to fight against its browser rivals.ДЄ recent error encountered when trying to download Firefox Nightly in Microsoft Edge made some redditors here believe the whole thing was intentional, even though itвЂ™s pretty clear that Smart Screen kicked and flagged the download as dangerous for totally different reasons.ДЄs TechDows noted, the Nightly version of Firefox was the only one getting blocked in Microsoft Edge, as the stable build still downloaded just fine. The browser world pretty much comes down to three giants right now, namely Google Chrome, which controls some 70 percent of the desktop, Microsoft Edge, already offered as the default Windows 10 browser but also offered on Linux and Mac, and Mozilla Firefox, which is seen by many as the only alternative to Chromium rivals.
