I wonder why somebody would branch just to do performance improvements?
Why not just work with the mozilla team and apply the changes to the
source tree? It's not like he's adding features and the team didn't want
them because they would add to bloat. Makes me wonder if there is a hidden
agenda is these custom builds...

Or maybe I'm just a super paranoid security professional.
