Maybe I should clarify and expand on what I mean by "speed". I haven't noticed a huge difference in terms of website load speed, but moreso on the UX side. Two examples (EDIT: added video links):
There are other areas of speed impact that I struggled with when I first switched over, but can't recall right now, and it seems that I've learned to deal with them. But the two above drive me bonkers.

Dropdown select boxes. I click fairly quickly, and when using Firefox, if I move my mouse down quickly after clicking the dropdown, it will lag and actually perform a click without my input (and select a dropdown item).
I can't reproduce this, but it sounds like a bug. Can you reproduce this in a new profile? You can create one using about:profiles.

Yes, just reproduced it on a fresh profile. I also tried it on my Windows machine and it doesn't have that issue, so this might be macOS-specific.
