The graph is on a logarithmic scale btw
| Configuration | Before series (ms) | With series (ms) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 vCPU | 22.3 (21.6-22.6) | 0.97 (0.72-1.4) |
| 8 vCPUs | 314 (97-2542) | 7.0 (5.0-98) |

do you have gapps? are there many addons in firefox?
don’t use disk swap. it’s almost never a good choice.
crashing to boot animation sounds very weird. i haven’t experienced it since CM10 (android 4.1.2). perhaps there’s a different issue with that rom?
i think you may have to try another rom, or a lower android version. in my experience android 12 and higher is much heavier/sluggish than 11. i’d recommend downgrading.
the android build system is really shitty. it’s too optimized for OEM’s high spec build servers, us poor plebs can’t run it well… it even needs insane storage space for some reason. for small modifications manual edits work much better
(and btw what device is this?)
Redmi 3s. I have microg, although Firefox is actually Fennec F-Droid and doesn’t use it. I have UBlock Origin, decentraleyes, indie wiki buddy (only got to use once), libredirect and NoScript. NoScript is annoying for when I do want scripting, although it’s a lifesaver for sites (like Discourse instances) that have scriptless variants. I also recall turning down the amount of threads or something in about:config? Not sure if that helped. Also RFP but it’s half placebo at this point, my opsec is permanently beyond fucked and my threat model is nonexistent.
Yup.
Security patches. I don’t want the fucking Bluetooth backdoor. Kinda fine with local privilege at this point, though. Oh, and I ain’t setting all that up again.
try less plugins in firefox. i only use ublock origin and numatrix (this can replace noscript and works better). don’t enable too many filter lists in ublock, there’s pretty severe impact.
or theres the choice of using chromium based instead. somehow they work much smoothly than ff. i still use kiwibrowser but it’s discontinued so can’t recommend it… there’s no ublock but cromite is decent
not sure wdym bluetooth backdoor tho. i personally don’t use BT at all so…
There once was once a tiny bug in the Bluetooth stack, reportedly enough for remote code execution.
Re: numatrix: I will check that out, thx. Are you supposed to mix it with an ad blocker, though?
ublock is (mostly) best used as a blacklist filter while numatrix is best as a whitelist filter. you can toggle js, xhr, frame, etc for individual domains and sites with numatrix. similar function isn’t impossible to achieve in ublock (which is why gorhill stopped developing umatrix, the origin of numatrix) but it’s far more intuitive with numatrix. i suggest you just try as it’s fairly easy to understand.
