I added Waterfox as the 64-bit browser recommended for Windows. Everything started up and works wonderfully! I also run with Sync enabled to my OwnCloud Weave server and appreciate my Firefox config being used. This is not a conclusive measure/test, but my experience so far is the added performance improvement makes this older laptop compatible with today's applications!
#Waterfox 27.0.2 full
In Waterfox full screen the display is fluid and CPU1 ~90%, CPU2 ~70%. In Firefox Adobe Flash running full screen would skip and stutter along with both CPU's 100%. Sometimes I watch the news live at 5pm PST Watching the following link in Firefox would achieve about 3 FPS. I run a slightly older HP Laptop DV9823CL, AMD Turion X2 Mobile with NVIDIA GeForce 7150m / nForce 630m running Vista 圆4. Thought I'd share a couple "loose" benchmarks after installing Waterfox 27.0.2.

e10s will now be disabled when using add-ons that aren't marked explicitly as compatible with e10s.
#Waterfox 27.0.2 update
If you use a different than default location for Firefox, you should be able to just update the profile.ini in the new Waterfox profile location to carry on using that location.
