I just downloaded it there and there has been major changes done. It definitely seems a lot faster

Firefox uses around 30 per cent less memory than Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Apple Safari on Windows operating systems

Firefox Quantum is the result of around 700 authors across the globe contributing code to the browser since August 6th 2017.

I also noticed that every unique tab starts up a different firefox process. So 10 tabs with 10 different webpages, 10 firefox.exe processes. Add them all up and its still a lot of memory usage. Did it do this before? I have seen multiple processes before for it but not that many.
