Tested on keineahnung.

From the [release notes][1]:

> With this release, we’re building on the great foundation provided by
> our all-new Firefox Quantum browser. We're optimizing the performance
> gains we released in 57 by improving the way we render graphics and
> cache JavaScript. We also made functional and privacy improvements to
> Firefox Screenshots. On Firefox for Android, we’ve added support for
> Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) so you can add websites to your home
> screen and use them like native apps.

Why are you updating to 58.0 and not to 58.0.1?

To damn slow.

Slow overall feeling but to make it objective, I've started firefox with firefox https://github.molgen.mpg.de/ and quit it immediate after the page is fully rendered. Three runs each.

version seconds
firefox 57.04 4,9 4,66 4.26
firefox 58 13,99 14,02 14,14

@donald, thank you for testing. I am able to verify it with the build Mozilla Firefox offers too, and reported an issue.

This has not been merged, but rustc-1.23.0-0.x86_64 is installed in addition to rustc-1.21.0-3.x86_64 by #601. I think rustc-1.23.0-0.x86_64 should be deinstalled (or redone based on rustc-1.21.0-3.x86_64)
