May I ask why? Not trying to invalidate it, just simply curious as to what one would do with FF45 x64, over something 52-based.

It's the best balance between the speed lost with Firefox 52 and compatibility gained from 52.

I kinda wanna see how an AVX x64 build would work to be honest. It might not even be possible, but science.

RT1 is already doing a million builds (most weekly) as it is, so if he doesn't want to do a build I wouldn't push it

I wanted to point this out too. I'm wondering how on earth he even manages to, clearly has a lot of spare time.

I hate to go off topic here but that's not a healthy enough amount of sleep. Don't overdo yourself please. :/

Yeah, that’s a good advice. And I think “only” an update every 14 days or so is more than amazing considering this all is a one person community project.
