Disappointing for Firefox for such lower performance.

I just ran the JetStream2 benchmark and got:

- Firefox: 159 score

- Chromium: 235 score

That's on latest Fedora Linux and Ryzen 3600 CPU.

Similar results here.

I'm curious to know what the problem of Firefox is. For example, the 3d-raytrace-SP benchmark is nearly three times faster on Edge than on Firefox on my i7 laptop. The code of that benchmark is very simple and mostly consists of basic math operations and array accesses. Maybe the canvas operations are particularly slow on Firefox? This seems to be an example that developers should take a look at.
