YES! I did that first thing to establish a baseline.

And was surprised by the differences; guessing, the more crap being sold the higher the number, also more non text components add to the total.
The totals are not always the same between Chrome and Firefox.
On this thread, Chrome shows 7, Firefox 6. FF does not list ‘common.css’; on this thread.

Running Chrome and FF side by side.
I’m using a big old HP Z420 dual xeon workstation with 2 monitors and Ubuntu 20.04, helps to keep the house warm.
Not a computer guy, but it was provided by my employer, when I retired they said,return the drive and keep the rest.

Thank you again, this is interesting stuff! (Yes, I’m easily amused)
Have a happy Thanksgiving!

Yes, and which is one reason more bandwidth and PC power is needed as years go on.

In either case it is quite the contrast btwn FR and ad sites. www.breitbart.com shows over 100 requests in 30secs if you scroll.

At least. I have to use FF quantum portable if I want to also use FF legacy ESR, but i also run Chrome portable. That way it is all together can be transferred rather easily. Thank God.

Looks pretty good for its age if this is right. I have Linux on a rig that is mainly just used for the Internet. The one I am using is W/10 Pro (from a $30.00 upgrade to a retail channel W/8 years ago) on a home built rig. Thank God for what we can get and do.

Yes it is interesting, and have a good Thanksgiving indeed. Much to be thankful for.
