Bizarre™ Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Waterfox is a 64-bit version of Firefox. Waterfox is modified version of the Firefox source code specifically for machines running 64-bit versions of Windows. Software designed for 64-bit Windows editions can take advantage of faster RAM and processing speeds and greater stability in 64-bit systems. Just converting Mozilla's source code for 64-bit Windows isn't enough, Waterfox takes it to another level with unique tweaks which help it exploit the speed of 64-bit systems. Waterfox is made with one thing in mind: speed. Waterfox offers 100% Firefox Add-on Compatibility and 64-bit Plugin Support.Thanks to thylacine for the update.Download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeky Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Nightly: builds created out of the mozilla-central repository every night. These are not qualified by QA.Aurora: builds created out of the mozilla-aurora repository, which is synced from mozilla-central every 6 weeks. There is a small amount of QA at the start of the 6 week period before the updates are offered.Beta: builds created out of the mozilla-beta repository, qualified by QA as being of sufficient quality to release to beta users.There are not final releases...PaleMoon and Cyberfox, Waterfox are 64bit browsers and final releases by an other "team".

Or this is simply joke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalju Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 This is at the moment the so-called "Test-Version". There is a need to make some changes to make it easier to update. Looking forward good suggestions.When it sometimes hangs up, this is Waterfox problem. Sometimes it hangs up less, sometimes it happens very often.

Kalju Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I have compared now -Cyberfox x64, Waterfox x64 and Firefox x86 (32-bit), there is absolutely no difference, the same CPU usage, if there are the same extensions in use and opened the same websites.Apparently you need to look for, what regularly work, if Firefox is running. May-be some scripts, if to speak about Firefox and Waterfox, they used the same user data, if they are installed as usually. Cyberfox uses its own user data folder, it's different.You must look up, what's the reason. But it isn't Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
