User reviews

The add-on is appreciated by users needing performance metrics in older or limited browsers. However, it faces significant compatibility issues with recent Firefox versions, lacks clear output or results after running tests, has insufficient documentation, and presents usability challenges that hamper understanding and running it effectively.

Pros

Useful for grabbing performance metrics when browser developer tools are insufficient.
Works with older browsers like Waterfox Classic and TenFourFox which lack advanced performance support.

Cons

Not compatible with recent Firefox versions (e.g., Firefox 81.0.1 and Developer Edition 58.06.13).
No visible results or feedback after running tests, leading to user confusion.
Lack of documentation and support materials makes it difficult to understand and use.
Some users are unable to find or run the extension after installation, hinting at usability or compatibility issues.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Page Performance Test requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
Critical ****** ****** ** ******* ***** ***** *** ** **** ** ***** **** ******** ****** *** ******** ********** * ******* ********
Medium ****** ** ********* ****** ********* *** **** ****** **** **** ** ******* ** ********** **** ***********

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Page Performance Test has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
