Firefox 3.0 Release Candidate 1
section: download, for your questions: KezNews forum, 18.5.2008
Many of you will know that I’ve been following the progress of the Firefox 3.0 browser carefully over the past few months.
Yesterday the browser entered an important phase of development with the unveiling of Release Candidate 1 (RC1).
Important changes include:
* Improvements to the user interface based on user feedback, including changes to the look and feel on Windows Vista, Windows XP, Mac OS X and Linux.
* Changes and fixes for new features such as the location bar autocomplete, bookmark backup and restore, full page zoom, and others, based on feedback from our community.
* Fixes and improvements to platform features to improve security, web compatibility and stability.
* Continued performance improvements: changes to our JavaScript engine as well as profile guided optimization continues to improve performance over previous releases as measured by the popular SunSpider test from Apple, and in the speed of web applications like Google Mail and Zoho Office.
I’ve not had much time to use the browser yet and get to know it, but so far it seems fast, responsive and stable. Performance isn’t perceptibly different from Beta 5 and memory usage seems to be about the same.
