firefox-41.0.2 : Measuring timings is doing my head in - when I installed 41.0 on this same machine (my i3), I calculated 39 SBU. I then retimed it on my A10 (AMD: SBU is slow) and got 30.8 SBUs but went with the intel figure as being "more reliable". Now, I havve measured this point release on the i3, still running 7.8, and it is down to 20 SBU.
