available for quite a while, it's 64-bit by default since august
multiprocess and a bunch of significant changes (new UI, CSS layout engine and extension systems) will be default in 57, just so you're aware if you're going to switch
Thanks. Mozilla's jump to 64bit has been long overdue. On Linux they have had a 64bit browser for years now, but in Windows they have been sticking with 32bit for longer than they should have. I'm still using Windows 7 Ultimate and I have not switched to Win10 yet, and I noticed that under Windows 7 current versions of FireFox get really poor performance, and once you get up to 2GB of memory usage, the browser just becomes unstable and crashes randomly. Something that I don't see any problems with under Waterfox, which is a 64bit variation.
Yeah I will install the version 57 and take a look at it.
