Lately, I'm experiencing less that optimal behavior and performance, so I'm building a fresh profile hoping to clean things up.

Like many of us, over the years I've collected and documented a number of tweaks. Before I re-implement them, I was hoping to publish them here to get opinions about their current validity/necessity, effectiveness, safety, detrimental affects, etc.

Would it be for me to post these about:config tweaks?

Hi

We do not tend to support about:config hacks as they can impact the stability and performance of Firefox. What we do support is provided at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox

If you have found hacks that make you life better, I would encourage you to publish them on your own site or blog.
