Is the difference really that stark? Maybe my hardware is powerful enough not to be bothered, but any slowness to me is imperceptible with Firefox. (This isn't to be dismissive of the issue, of course they should try to improve performance wherever possible.)

On desktop it is comparable; but if you use Windows Edge is faster in every way except privacy. On Linux it is a different story. On android!? It is as slow as a turtle; faster than before yet still nowhere near Chromium based browsers (that has adblock).
