    So I wasn't very happy with the speed of pages loading that I have with Firefox.. Chrome seems instantaneous where as Firefox seems to think for a couple of seconds before it decides to go to that page

    I know the locaiton of the server and all of that webpage plays a role but I am talking about the majority of websites

    I just tried Palemoon (both the 32 bit and the 64 bit variants) and they both seem to be much faster in terms of speed when visiting different websites

    Is it the placebo effect or is it real?

    If it is real, how on earth does it do that? its built in the same code right and looks exactly the same
    I don't get it

    I think he wants to say Palemoon shares same code as Firefox.

    @ian82
    The above is stated under the main features of Pale Moon. May be thats the reason.
