Hi,
we are about to start a hardened Tor Browser series and the first nightly for it is ready to get tested (on 64bit Linux systems):

Very nice!
Are there any plans on a 32-bit Linux build soon? Nightly? We're quite interested trying this out in Tails which, sadly, only has a 32-bit user land (although it ships a 64-bit kernel, too).
Any way I tried it briefly on Debian Jessie with much success:
* Watching cats videos on YouTube in 720p without stuttering: Check! :) * Done!
Seriously, though, I subjectively did notice some slowdowns on bloaty, ad-heavy sites (think: news papers). I guess that is to be expected. Also, when I exited I got:
ASAN:SIGSEGV ================================================================= ==8134==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000000 (pc 0x000000000000 bp 0x7ff4e4eeeffa sp 0x7ffdad284918 T0) ==8134==Hint: pc points to the zero page.
AddressSanitizer can not provide additional info.
and then ~a minute of nothing with the process still running, and then:
ASAN:SIGSEGV ==8294==AddressSanitizer: while reporting a bug found another one. Ignoring.
and then ~another minute of nothing, and then the process exited (code = 1). I can reproduce this every time.
Cheers!
