While I do understand the frustration, I think the "find in page" hotkey isn't a big enough reason to change the platform. Myself, I am happy with the performances.
By the way, what would you replace it with?
In general, we quickly act on obvious bugs/regressions on major websites.
Often, such major issues on big websites are caused by certain add-ons or antivirus software.
Please don't read too much into this ;)
We moved from self-hosted Discourse to hosted Discourse.
The transfer was initiated late from the Mozilla side (my bad) and the automatic system from Discourse kicked in.
Would you have more details to share? I don't experience such issues on github.
Clue: do you have some unusual addons which could change the behavior of Firefox?
As you can see, these patches do not impact the quality of Rustc itself. Some could be forwarded upstream (it is a pain for packagers to maintain patches - so, we do have strong incentives to contribute upstream).
I don't have data but I guess ls, cp, mv, ln, chown, chmod, sort and cut are the most popular.
Overall, I don't think it is a key part of the OS regular work. Most of the servers and system are busy with services, db, browsers, etc...

The performance wins are usually produced by using some fancy Rust features.
