User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0 Build ID: 20160304115459 Actual results: At default Firefox does manage the disk cache automatically like setting browser.cache.disk.capacity to a suitable value but browser.cache.compression_level seems to always stay at 0. Expected results: Firefox could try to figure out a suitable value for browser.cache.compression_level to take more advantage of the cache. For example it could favor higher values on slow disks (to reduce the I/O and even potentially increase the performance) and lower values if the CPU is not powerfull.
