I just tried Firefox v57 on a very old 2008 MacBook Pro with its
original HDD, 2 GB of RAM, etc. It runs very slowly softwares with Mac
OS X El Capitan v10.11.6. However, I was surprised how much faster
Firefox v57 was over the previous versions!

When will SeaMonkey get its Gecko improvements? Thank you in advance. :)

Probably not for a long time.

Boo. :(

Yes, it's just the massive amount of catching up SM has to do with even pre-57 changes. There are so many under-the-hood changes in 57 and essentially not many people able to work on SM that is the main issue. So much code has to be ported, re-jiggered and converted that it's just not like the old day where one could, for the most part, import the code and it would essentially just work. I'm thankful that anyone is even working on SM anymore to try and keep it updated against the current FF changes. Just have to wait patiently. =\
