So the big selling point of Firefox Quantum is that it uses multi-core processors to increase performance. And overall it's supposed to be more efficient, lighter, more memory efficient, yadda yadda yadda.

Well, the first time I installed Firefox on my Yoga Book, performance was less than optimal. I installed Quantum and I must say, it runs really well. Scrolling is smooth, almost as smooth as Edge (at least on the pages I usually visit).

If you have a Cherry Trail device and you never installed Firefox because you were worried about performance, I'd recommend installing Firefox Quantum.
