Was it due to rust getting faster/better, or firefox getting smaller? gcc is definitely slowing down so I won't ask that :D

Well, in this case clang+lto+pgo USE were used so...  Maybe used llvm slot 10 though (support was added in firefox-74), that could've gotten faster, not that I've checked (Edit: I don't even bother comparing build times).
I'm still on slot 9 since I'm waiting for non-rc final 10.0.0 to upgrade.
Bit off-topic side-note: mentioned this in another thread but firefox-74 removed the blocker for libvpx <=1.7.0, so can use system-libvpx with recent up-to-date libvpx again.

Same clang.
One possibility remains that would nullify such conclusion: 73 being build on powersave, whereas 74 was surely build on performance.
Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support. |
