I was looking for a non-chromium alternative browser to Firefox and found mercury. According to this site it is one of the fastest Firefox forks and also has optimizations from other well known forks like librewolf.

Does this enable x86-64-v4 (AVX512) optimisations? I've checked the github page but don't see any references to x86-64-v4.

You can likely use Mozillas documentation to optimize your Firefox that way
