At the very least, when FF reaches this level of bloat, it would make a whole lot of sense (and probably reduce the number of Crash Reporter reports to zero) if Firefox was split into:
MozillaFirefox-core MozillaFirefox-addons
which would end up with greatly improved performance for Firefox-core that no longer consumes 4-18% of the CPU at idle. It would not surprise me at all if split packages looked something like:
MozillaFirefox-core 8.4 M MozillaFirefox-addons 29.0 M
No, while Firefox was that small in version 1 it's not really possible to provide a modern, (pretty much) HTML5 compatible browser in that size anymore. At least not if you want/need to provide all the multimedia stuff on your own. Google Chrome 187160474 Firefox 97095632 So when talking about bloat Firefox does not do that bad. The Pocket integration is discussed from the community already upstream. I read about it and also an answer that as long as "Pocket" is not used it won't even load in runtime (lazy loading) and therefore the bloat argument does not really exist. UI bloat I agree a bit with but I found it rather easy to remove the icon. Other references: http://venturebeat.com/2015/06/09/mozilla-responds-to-firefox-user-backlash-...
