Does Firefox iOS need to boot/startup whenever I load it? I've been using it on and off throughout the day, and for some reason, I get the FF startup screen. And Could the FF startup go a little quicker like the default Safari?

depending on the age of your device it might be purging apps in the background quicker than newer devices, which will cause it to have to start the app up again when you boot it up. Unfortunately this is an IOS device limitation and there isn't much we can do about it.
