Bit of context: when the Snap Firefox was released, some people noticed that it has poorer benchmark performance than native packaging. A Canonical employee posted an update showing that they improved its performance, but some didn't like that they were comparing their changes to an older version of Firefox (Firefox Snap beta 100 vs. Firefox tar.gz 99). I hope this clears some of the confusion up.
Higher is better. Flatpak 99 not tested because it was already updated by the time I started testing. All testing was done on fresh Firefox profiles. Testing was done on Fedora 36 running on a Ryzen 5600x, RX 6700 XT, and 16GB of RAM.
