Build and Install - MDC Doc Center

Building Once you have checked out the source, be you may want to configure an application as described on the Configuring Build Options page. Generally, the defaults are selected to produce something that is almost identical to the Firefox binaries as shipped. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Build_and_Install

chris’ random ramblings » Nightly build times getting slower over time

Yesterday some folks in #developers mentioned they felt their builds were getting slower over time. I wondered if the same was true for our build machines. Here’s a chart of build times for the past year. http://atlee.ca/blog/2011/02/11/slower-nightlies/
http://libjpeg-turbo.virtualgl.org/ libjpeg - turbo is a derivative of libjpeg that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2, NEON) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64, and ARM systems. On such systems, libjpeg - turbo is generally 2-4x as fast as the unmodified version of libjpeg, all else being equal. libjpeg - turbo was originally based on libjpeg/SIMD by Miyasaka Masaru, but the TigerVNC and VirtualGL projects made numerous enhancements to the codec in 2009, including improved support for Mac OS X, 64-bit support, support for 32-bit and big-endian pixel formats (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), accelerated Huffman encoding/decoding, and various bug fixes.

Simple Firefox build - MDC Doc Center

https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Simple_Firefox_build This page covers the basic steps needed to build a bleeding-edge, development version of Firefox. For additional, more detailed information, see the build documentation .
You can look at tinderboxpushlog to see how green the tree is, though often there are known random failures in play so it can be tricky to identify exactly how good the build is. https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Source_Code/LatestPassingSource

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Configuring_Build_Options Starting with Gecko 5.0 (Firefox 5.0 / Thunderbird 5.0 / SeaMonkey 2.2) , building Firefox has become extremely simple. The default application is now Firefox, so you can build Firefox by simply doing configure && make (for downloaded code) or make -f client.mk (for code from the Mercurial repository); this will build something roughly the same as the shipped version of Firefox corresponding to the code you have.

Mercurial is a source-code management tool which allows users to keep track of changes to the source code locally and share their changes with others. It is used for the development of Firefox 3.5/Mozilla 1.9.1 and later releases. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla_Source_Code_%28Mercurial%29
