According to some rumors, the next, or one of the next Firefox releases, will be faster in terms of Javascript rendering. This means that Firefox will manage to render blogs and websites in a better way, also reducing the time it takes to show them on your computer screen. Basically, one of the next Firefox builds will be blazing fast! If you want to have a glimpse of the future, try this trick for Firefox… now!  It toggles GPU accelerated rendering via DirectX 11.
