If you update it, it's not the same that it once was, so it can perform worse, or better. It can use more or less resources. I guess the trend in the past decade has been to perform worse and use more memory, even letting alone the issue that sites themselves sometimes use excessive JS frameworks that are heavy and do silly things like requiring 3D acceleration, which is a recipe for performance disaster unless you're on, I don't know, something comparable to a gaming rig? Or something that at least is not going to do any software emulation of 3D features? A significant change was when Microsoft dropped IE6 support. That was followed by a boom in web incompatibility. Not because a lot of people were using IE6, but because a lot more browsers benefited from sites and frameworks still being IE6-compatible. -- Nuno Silva
