Mozilla has included in the version Firefox beta some improvements for the various platforms (Linux, Windows and Mac), where a better performance in the treatment with JavaScript and therefore online games.
This is accomplished with Ionmonkey, a compiler for JIT-JavaScript which improves browser performance with web applications. In addition, support for Apple's Retina Displays and Support for W3C touch events is added in addition to the events of MozTouch.

Interesting. They are the kinds of things that I think make Firefox the best browser out there. Testing and downloading. The truth is I think it will overtake Google Chrome and IE one day.
Actually Firefox has already surpassed IExplorer and even Chrome .. 😉
For me Firefox has always been the winner. Chrome's results have always been misleading, even more so when it maintains full integration with Google (so anyone seems the best)
In fact, it has already surpassed them a long time ago, but not in terms of users, and less with the withdrawal of Windows 64 bits.
The overwhelming increase of Chrome is because Google calls to download its browser every so often in the searches, they are monopolistic techniques just like Microsoft
All this seems very good to me, but it would be time to stop selling smoke and the "new, fantastic news" come by default and not have to pull about.config, like the new download manager, read the pdf, yes, or simply the activation of plugins according to the page and at our will
And when will final ionmonkey be seen, in which version of the furro?
Does anyone know if all these performance improvements are available for apps built with XULRunner?
I do not move from Rekonq until there is integration from firefox to KDE
