make Firefox faster (lemmy.world)

I want to get more points in speedometer 3 using firefox. I've seen results above 20-24, but I can't get more than 12 because js takes a long time to process. What to do? Rebuild firefox with the -0fast flag?? Or do something with config. I use some fixes in it which just extend limits for everything (almost)

Any suggestions are welcome

I realize what sub this is but really your best bet is probably to use a fork with optimized binaries (mercury comes to mind) it’s the best way to get fast firefox on arch too lol. the main repo package is fairly poor (on arch)
