Mozilla Firefox 66 to use 8 Content Processes by default - silversurfer - 15 March 19

Quote:Mozilla officially announced they’re going to make the number of content processes run by Firefox with version 66 from 4 to 8 and it will be set as default. Firefox 66 is scheduled to release on March 18, 2019.

Till current Firefox 65, the number of content processes running set to 4, now this to be changed to 8 in the upcoming version. The company is doing this after testing and getting good results. Memory advocate @Mozilla, Eric Roham confirmed the news in a blog post and said by doubling content processes number they noticed only 6% increase in memory, roham feels that is quite impressive.
