Palemoon AVX build

[reyes]

Recently i found out a 3rd party build of Palemoon called Palemoon AVX build by Accel. Palemoon AVX build is based on the Palemoon source code but is optimized for the processors. This requires an AVX-capable CPU (latest generations Intel or AMD).

Processor supporting AVX (code name) :

Intel:

• Sandy Bridge
  
• Ivy Bridge
  
• Haswell
  
• Broadwell

AMD:

• Bulldozer
  
• Vishera

You can check if your processor support AVX by using CPU-Z. If it supports you will see AVX in the instruction column.

According to the developer the main advantage is a faster loading on some page with full of Java Script or Flash because of using AVX instruction on processors. I have been running this build and its pretty good so far. Check it out if you are interested
