Had to revert back to 28 to mitigate UI issues caused by Pentadactyl in the new update. I'm not sure I'm going to be missing much in 29.
Some issues here too. Can't temporarily show address bar and I need it to access lastpass, there is weird horizontal line near the top etc. How did you revert back? Is there some interface option or I have to dig out old download?

Not yet, but a storage inspector panel is being worked on: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=970517

> HN should ban new users from moderating for a year. You actually need quite a bit of karma (maybe 500?) on Hacker News before you can downvote things, so anybody downvoting you can't be that new of a user.
IME, you can earn a lot of karma quickly with links. I'd say 1/3 of my karma came from links, and initially that's what pushed me over the top. So they're most likely not new users, but anyone with a month of submissions could have crossed that threshold. It makes me wonder if the two karmas, and the features that get enabled, should be separate things.

> I just tried and your developer tools don't cause the tab to freeze for 1 second every time I switched into the tab. Can you give steps to reproduce and a test case? Which panel do you have active? What URL are you on?
I'm not sure if you're part of the Firefox team, but either way sorry I don't remember exactly the circumstances. But it was on Firefox 27 - Mac OSX 10.8 - any page. Any page that had the dev tools open froze for about 1 to 2 seconds when switching back to it.

But that's not full screen though. That's maximize, you are incorrect. http://i.imgur.com/lO0g7oS.gif
Interesting. I've never seen this before and the only references I've been able to find on it in a quick search was a compiz setting in 12.04. Is this built in to the stock ubuntu releases? If so, what version?

Which I hate to say as a diehard Pentadactyl user.

Want to try on the latest release? I can't reproduce with Release (29) or Nightly (32) on 10.9. If you can give some solid STR and a test case we can investigate further, but as it is now, this isn't very actionable from our end :-/
20 tabs, each with it's dev tools open. Zero lags! I'm in love.

Maybe I expressed myself incorrectly. I mean this type of information profiling.

Very useful to track down where some, sometimes pesky, JavaScript code has bound events to the DOM.
This is a big debugging pain, to track down why events are being triggered, or not working, in a certain way and what JavaScript code is responsible for it.
Re: Firefox 29
#339I really want to like firefox, but it is just so much slower/unresponsive than chrome. Is this something specific to my setup? I tried this new version out on a clean profile and compared it to chrome: http://fixme.se/pub/chrome_vs_ff.flv I searched a bit and found this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=924411 Nothing seems to have happened though, and google maps is far from the only example..

#340On an iOS device this page informs me firefox isn't available for iOS. There is no link to view the contents of the page, so I'm locked out of finding out what's new in Firefox 29 until I'm off mobile. Consider adding a "full site" link, or a "view desktop version" link.
