    Yep, using it right now, and it works very well. I've enabled layout.css.servo.enabled and this really seems to speed up website rendering.

    You don't need portableapps for this. Just start FF with firefox -p and create a new profile which you call, say, test. Then you can start FF Nightly with

    firefox -p test -no-remote

    With your stable version you can still use your normal profile.

    That is what I prefer to run tests with. Especially when it involves pre-release-quality code (this is alpha). Which ever way one goes: watch out for increased telemetry by default.

    I've been testing Nightly 57.0a1 in the past days with layout.css.servo.enabled activated - and it's very fast and absolutely stable. It's gonna be a great release :thumb:

    and now try to get some working extension - webextension, not legacy.
    tried it today - ublock, session manager and tabmix+. after restart totally complete fail, i think it was the update from yesterday to tommorrow and extension mixmatch (which all were marked as legacy). session manager = fail, rest unknown. as long the nightly offer legacy support this would be ridiculous.

    i tried to insert a modified "session buddy" (chrome store) but either the api is not ready or lots of errors. working = complete fail. firefox 57 is not close to be compared to chromium api.
