Die verbeeteriengn kwoamn achter da 't marktoandiêl an 't zakkn wos in 't vôordêel van [[w:nl:Google Chrome|Google Chrome]], asôok uut zörgn da ze prestaties achterop hinktn in vergelykienge mei de reste. Oundanks zyn verbeeteriengn, zörgdn die veranderiengn d'r voorn da d' bestoande [[w:nl:Add-on (Mozilla)|add-ons (uutbreidiengn)]] vo Firefox oencompoatibel wierdn gemakt med e nieuw're versies, in 't vôordêel van e nieuw [[w:nl:Browser-extensie|extensie]]-systeim da zo ountworpen is da 't trekt ip Chrome en and're recente browsers. Firefox 57, uutebrocht in november 2017, wos d' êeste versie die verbeeteriengn van Quantum e-kreigen èit, en wierd dorumme ''Firefox Quantum'' genoemd. E vôorzitter van Mozilla verkloardege da Quantum de &quot;grôotsten update&quot; van d'n browser wos sinds versie 1.0.&lt;ref&gt;https://www.cnet.com/special-reports/mozilla-firefox-fights-back-against-google-chrome/, CNET (4 ogustus 2017).&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-you-should-root-for-mozillas-firefox-57-in-the-browser-wars/, ZDNet (6 ogustus 2017).&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;https://www.computerworld.com/article/3237054/internet/mozilla-seeks-return-to-glory-with-release-of-firefox-quantum.html, Computerworld (14 november 2017).&lt;/ref&gt; Pagina's die vastloopn of crashen èin nu allêne moar invloed ip and're pagina's die e-loadn zyn binn'n 't zèlfste proces. Binst da Chrome aparte processn gebruukt vôo ieder tabbloard, verdêelt Firefox d' tabbloarn standoard over viere processn (sinds Quantum), oem 't geheugngebruuk en de prestaties in balans t' ouden. 't Antal processn ku wordn an'epast, woarby da mêer processn de prestaties verôgen moa ten koste van 't geheugn, en doardeure is 't geschikter vôo computers mè e grôtere RAM-capaciteit.&lt;ref&gt;https://www.howtogeek.com/332449/whats-new-in-firefox-quantum/, How-To Geek (14 november 2017).&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/performance-settings, support.mozilla.org.&lt;/ref&gt;

=== Gastsesje ===
In 2013 voegdege Firefox for Android e ''gastsesje''-mode toe, die d' internetdoata lik tabbloarn, cookies, en geschiedenisse weugdeed an 't ende van iedere gastsesje. D' doata van de gastsesje bleef bewoard oôk oen je d'n browser of 't toestel erupoestarttege, en wierd allêne moa gewist up 't moment da j' d'r manueel uutgienk. De founctie is in 2019 weug'eoald, na verlude oem &quot;''d' ervoarienge the stroomlynn''&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2013/10/29/share-your-firefox-with-friends-family-while-keeping-your-web-information-private-with-guest-browsing, The Mozilla Blog (29 oktober 2013).&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/share-your-android-device-firefox-guest-session, support.mozilla.org.&lt;/ref&gt;

== Veiligheid ==
:''Zie ôok: [[w:nl:Browserbeveiliging|Browserveiligheid]]''

Vanaf 't êeste begun wierd Firefox neerezet lik ne browser die gefocust is up veiligheid. In dièn tyd zat [[w:nl:Internet Explorer|Internet Explorer]], d'n dominantn browser, in e veiligheidscrisis. D'r woarn mêerdere kwetsboarheedn gevoundn, en [[w:nl:Malware|malware]] lik [[w:en:Download.ject|Download.Ject]] kost zwoar g'ïnstalleerd wordn zjuuste deur the surfen na e g'hackte website. De situoatie wos ezo eirnstig da d' Amerikoansche overheid na verlude woarschuwiengn eit uutgestuurd over de veiligheidsrisico's met Internet Explorer.&lt;ref&gt;https://www.fastcompany.com/90428050/firefox-at-15-its-rise-fall-and-privacy-first-renaissance, Fast Company (11 ogustus 2019).&lt;/ref&gt; Oemda Firefox miender in 't besturiengssysteim geweevn zat, wierd 't g'anzien lik e veiliger alternatief, oemdat de kanse klinder wos dat 't probleemn ging geevn die ne computer hêlegans ounderuut gienkn oalen. Ditte lêedde na e serieuze stygienge in d'n populariteit van Firefox by 't begin van de joaren 2000 lik e veiliger alternatief.&lt;ref&gt;http://ptech.wsj.com/archive/ptech-20040916.html, The Wall Street Journal (16 september 2004).&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;https://web.archive.org/web/20071226062127/http://reviews.cnet.com/browsers/mozilla-firefox/4505-3514_7-31117280.html, CNET (24 moarte 2005).&lt;/ref&gt; Doabovnup wierd er gepeisd da Firefox miender actief uut te buutn [[w:nl:Kwetsbaarheid (informatica)|veiligheidslekken]] aad in vergelykienge mè zyn concurrentn. In 2006 melddege ''[[w:nl:The Washington Post|The Washington Post]]'' da d' exploit-code vô gekende veiligheidslekken in Internet Explorer voe 284 doagen beschikboar wos, in vergelykienge mè nog gin neegn doagen by Firefox vôodat 't probleem wos upgelost.&lt;ref&gt;http://blog.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2007/01/internet_explorer_unsafe_for_2.html, The Washington Post (4 januoari 2007).&lt;/ref&gt; E studie van [[w:nl:Gen Digital|Symantec]] round dezelsten tyd toogdege an dat oelôewel da Firefox een ôger aantal kwetsboarheden aad, dat ze in Firefox gemiddeld vele rapper wierdn ge-fixt in dièn tyd in vergelykienge met and're browsers.&lt;ref&gt;https://web.archive.org/web/20080207192416/http://www.techweb.com/wire/security/193005335, TechWeb (25 september 2006).&lt;/ref&gt;

In diène periode gebruukte Firefox een [[w:nl:Monolitische kernel|monolitische architectuur]], lik de mêeste browsers uut dièn tyd.  Da wildege zeggn dat oalle browsercomponentn draaiden in êen iênig [[w:nl:Proces (informatica)|proces]] met toegaank vôor oalle [[w:nl:Systeembron|systeimbronn'n]] (system resources). Die upstellienge aad e masse veiligheidsprobleemn. O e webpagina the vele bronn'n gebruuktege, wos hêel 't Firefox-proces an 't vastloopn of an 't crashen, wuk dat invloed aad up oalle tabbloarn. Doanboovnup kost iedere exploit oôk stief makkelik an de systeimbronn'n koemn, inclusief an de bestandn van d'n gebruuker. Tussn 2008 en 2012 zyn de mêeste browsers e-wisseld na e multiprocesarchitectuur, woaby dan z' ôog-risicoprocessn lik renderienge, media, d'n GPU, en 't netweirken gienken isoleern.&lt;ref&gt;https://seclab.stanford.edu/websec/chromium/, seclab.stanford.edu.&lt;/ref&gt; Firefox wos wel e bitje troager in 't anneemn van diè veranderienge. 't Dêerdege toet 2015 vôorda Firefox met eign Electrolysis (e10s)-project begoste oem d'n zandbakomgevinge (sandboxing) the implementeern over mêerdere componentn by mekoar. Diène herschrevn code stunde ip [[w:nl:Interprocess communication|interprocescommunicoatie]] woaby dan ze de interprocescommunicoatie-bibliotheke van [[w:nl:Chromium (webbrowser)|Chromium]] gebruukten en ze zetteden verschillige componentn, woarounder de renderiengscomponent, in zyn eign zandbak.&lt;ref&gt;https://web.archive.org/web/20201126184717/https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Multiprocess_Firefox/Technical_overview, Mozilla Developer Network (26 november 2020).&lt;/ref&gt; Firefox brocht d'n eerschrevn code uut ip bèta in ogustus 2016, woaby dan z' upmeirkten dat er e stygienge van 10-20% wos in geheugengebruuk, wuk da weire leger wos of da van Chrome van dièn tyd.&lt;ref&gt;https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2016/04/11/the-why-of-electrolysis, Mozilla Add-ons Community Blog (11 april 2016).&lt;/ref&gt; Wel is 't ezo dat d' eerschrevn code vôo probleemn zörgdege mè nunder ouden (legacy) extensie-API, diè ni ountworpen wos oem tussn processn the weirk'n e woavoorn dat 'r [[w:en:Shim (computing)|shim-code]] verêist wos oem weire goed te weirk'n.&lt;ref&gt;https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2016/04/11/the-why-of-electrolysis, Mozilla Add-ons Community Blog (11 april 2016).&lt;/ref&gt; Achter mêer of e joar in bèta, wierd de nief geschrevn veranderienge standoard in'eschoakeld vôor oalle gebruukers van Firefox in november 2017.&lt;ref&gt;http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/12/firefox-takes-the-next-step-towards-rolling-out-multi-process-to-everyone/, Ars Technica (21 december 2016).&lt;/ref&gt;

In februoari 2012 testtege ''[[w:nl:Tom's Hardware|Tom's Hardware]]'' de prestoaties van Chrome 17, Firefox 10, [[w:nl:Internet Explorer 9|Internet Explorer 9]], Opera 11.61, en Safari 5.1.2 up Windows 7. ''Tom's Hardware'' maktege e soamnvattienge van nunder testn in viere categoriën: Prestoaties (Performance), Efficiëntie (Efficiency), Betrouwboarheid (Reliability), en Conformeirienge an standoardn (Conformance). I de prestoatiecategorie testn z' [[w:nl:HTML5|HTML5]], [[w:nl:Java (platform)|Java]], [[w:nl:JavaScript|JavaScript]], [[w:nl:Document Object Model|DOM]], [[w:nl:CSS|CSS 3]], [[w:nl:Adobe Flash|Flash]], [[w:nl:Microsoft Silverlight|Silverlight]], en [[w:nl:WebGL|WebGL]] ([[w:en:WebGL 2|WebGL 2]] eist de latste nieuwe vanaf versie 51; en Java e Silverlight weirk'n nief meê vanaf versie 52)—z'oan oôk d'n uptstarttyd en the loadtydn van pagnia's getest. De prestoatietestn beweesdn da Firefox ofweêl &quot;anveirdboar&quot; of &quot;straf&quot; wos i d' mêeste categorieën, èn em deid winste i drie categoriën (HTML5, HTML5 [[w:nl:Hardwareversnelling|hardwareversnellienge]], e Java), woaby danze inkeld up e &quot;zwakken&quot; uutslag kwaemn vôr de CSS prestaties. I d' efficiëntietestn, keek ''Tom's Hardware'' na 't geheugngebruuk en 't behêer d'rfan. Me diè categorie, is e-vounden da Firefox inkeld &quot;anveirdboar&quot; weirktege vů 't licht geheugenverbruuk, moa dat em êcht &quot;straf&quot; wos als d'r t'n stravve geheugnbelastienge nùdig wos. In the betrouwboarheidcategorie lieverde Firefox the &quot;stravven&quot; antal goe geloadd'n pagina's. Vů d'latste categorie, d' conformoatie, wierd vastegesteld da Firefox een &quot;stravve&quot; conformeirienge ad vô JavaScript en HTML5. Ie 't besluut vound ''Tom's Hardware'' dus da Firefox d'n beste browser wos vů de Windows 7 OS, moa dat ie Google Chrome moa juuste-juuste tegn bleef.&lt;ref&gt;http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/chrome-17-firefox-10-ubuntu,3129-17.html, Tom's Hardware (21 februoari 2012).&lt;/ref&gt;

In juni 2013 testtege ''Tom's Hardware'' alweire e keèrs de prestoaties va Firefox 22, Chrome 27, Opera 12, en [[w:nl:Internet Explorer 10|Internet Explorer 10]]. Z'oan evound'n da Firefox a bitje betere uutslieg of d' and're browsers i nunder &quot;prestoatie&quot;-index (performance index), diè wachttyden, d' uutvoeringssnelheid va JavaScript, HTML5/CSS3 rendering, en d' prestaties van d' hardwareversnellienge gienk evelueern.
