Firefox 110 is out, with graphics performance improvements like GPU-accelerated 2D canvas and faster WebGL, and the usual under the hood updates. The record's still broken and bug 1775202 still is too, so you'll either need this patch — but this time without the line containing

desktop_capture/desktop_capture_gn

, since that's gone in the latest WebRTC update — or put

--disable-webrtc

in your

.mozconfig

if you don't need WebRTC at all. I also had to put

#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wnonnull"

into

js/src/irregexp/imported/regexp-parser.cc

for optimized builds to complete on this Fedora 37 system and I suspect this is a

gcc

bug; you may not need it if you're not using

gcc

12.2.1 or build with

clang

. Finally, I trimmed yet another patch from the PGO-LTO diff, so use the new one for Firefox 110 and

the .mozconfigs from Firefox 105

.
