Thanks.  I will be installing it any moment.  :)

Edit: Running it now.  So far so good.   :up:

I am starting to really like Slimjet chrome.  On the same idea as Mustang but without the lags.  Now it is the only chrome based browser I have.  Trying to cheat an use sync with more than one chrome based browser on the same machine invariably ends up with duplicate something or other.  It seems no matter how many users ask for an overwrite mode for sync they act like they don't hear it.

So far the only thing I don't like on Slimjet is if you want to save user id and password for a site you just logged into it wants to make you fill the stuff in again.  A pretty weird idea of "convenience" I must say.

Off topic though it may be.  :)

Finally got 40.0.3 compiled along with a patch:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1256875
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1127752

Yes, different platform :)

Still have crashing, but perhaps there will be less.  Just tried tweaking:

check you have OMTC disabled (in about:config layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled should be false)

So it's possible (likely even?) some of the crashes here are not related to the original report.

Don't know about that.  But it seems no matter which FF version I run I see periods where it goes unresponsive.  I suspect all that stuff it does as you type now fills up the queues with crap.  I might only have 2 tabs open not doing anything yet and they sit with spinning circles even though the network is live.  Stranger all the time.
