Firefox dev here – do you have an example page? We worked a lot on source maps, so things should have improved but maybe you hit a regression.

That is on our list for sure and some fixes have landed in 74 and 75. More to do for sure, but these issues are a priority in our performance program.

then manually kill the Chrome tab and I can still run through 1 million console lines smoothly

How does that work with DevTools – closing the tab and reading logs?

Text input is a priority but also hard to align on is complex, potentially risky, work.

Console log background was worked on by a contributor as its a good first bug.

Firefox dev here: Just to understand the use case (and others can pile on too) – do you use Lighthouse for online staged/prod sites or local testing?

Firefox dev here. Making sure failed requests are properly highlighted in Network panel is a big one on our list!

I am on Nightly which updates 2x daily without problems. If restart doesn't work maybe try a re-install. Filing a bug would be great so Firefox devs can work with you to find a root cause.

On Windows it should background update now as well.

Firefox member here – thanks a lot for reporting those bugs! Thanks to detailed reports Debugger could improve and glitches should become more and more a rarity.

Please report those via webcompat.com – Firefox's compat team will always follow up and learn more how to close the platform gap that causes the issues but also reach out to the devs.

DevTools member here. We have been working on performance over the past release – is there anything specific that you can point out as being slower for us to focus on?

Thanks again for that discussion, it already spawned some follow up.

DevTools member here. As this is something we are chipping away on, are there any specific places where the UI throws you off?

Firefox DevTools member here. If you have tried them recently, I'd love your feedback on what's blocking you.

DevTools member here: We have a more powerful target switching (hidden) in the toolbar but are also working to better expose JS context switching early next year.

Debugger's new threads panel also solves this partially when you pause in a thread.

Are your use cases extensions, workers or iframes?

Firefox DevTools member here. We are looking into Puppeteer/CDP – what is the product you depend on? If you can't post it here, feel free to email me [nickname] at mozilla org

Correct on premature launch! Handling all the excitement was fun though while preparing food. There is a lot more work and research needed before rolling this out further.

We are looking into that right now actually to make that easier, maybe you could file a specific bug. Are you using the iframe-picker in Firefox and that isn't working as expected?

I'd love to hear what other things come to mind regarding feature parity. We have been hitting a few of those out of the park lately and are slowly running out of obvious ones crossing fingers

We have them in the backlog and had some conversations with users about them to scope them out. What are you using them for? We hear it a lot from the ClojureScript community.
