I am not a Firefox user but know that matching Webkit performance on macOS is going to be very hard.
So just fired a test on my Macbook Air - Safari 13 vs Firefox 70.
Opened top 10 links from techmeme. Both windows in background.
Firefox 70:
Energy use 30-200; CPU 20-25%; Threads 82
Safari 13:
Energy use 0.1-5; CPU 2-5%; Threads 11
If this is to celebrate I can only imagine what the things looked like before this release. Save for Apple fiddling with the energy use numbers (VW style) this means that my battery is going to last 4-5x longer with Safari. Can anyone replicate this for the sake of argument?
