Here is a list of some bank websites I found, that take very noticeably longer to load in Epiphany 43.x (many seconds) than in any recent version of Firefox (typically less than a second): * https://www.boj.or.jp * https://www.rbcroyalbank.com * https://www.bankofsingapore.com * https://www.citibank.com/citi/ * https://www.mediobanca.com * https://www.tangerine.ca * https://www.eqbank.ca * https://www.oaken.com * https://www.bmo.com * https://www.credit-agricole.fr Maybe those (and news sites) could be part of some sort of standard benchmarks test suite? 1951554 1 kdwkleung 2023-04-27 02:22:01 -0700 Loading time seems to be on par with Firefox in Gnome Web 44.2 1951864 2 nekohayo 2023-04-28 11:48:51 -0700 Here this still happens with 44.2. Epiphany takes roughly 5-10 seconds to fully load those websites, that Firefox loads in 4 seconds or less. Firefox is typically 2-3x faster there than Epiphany to load those sites on my desktop computer, even with uBlock Origin disabled, in a private window and fresh launch (with no on-disk cache). For example, without uBlock Origin activated in Firefox - Oaken took 4 seconds in Firefox; 7 seconds in Epiphany - crédit agricole took 3-4 seconds in Firefox; 8.5 secs in Epiphany - Bank of Singapore took 3.5 seconds in Firefox, 5-6 seconds in Epiphany When using uBlock Origin, Firefox tends to load them in less than 3 seconds each, sometimes less than 1 or 2 seconds it seems.
