Please take some time to write a complete question. I have no clue what you're trying to ask or what your perceived issue is.

The "compatible with Firefox mode" can be unselected ... this brings advantages in terms of responsiveness of the browser?

No. Firefox compatibility mode is purely a switch to satisfy websites that perform useragent sniffing to "detect" browsers. It has no impact on the browser's internal workings.
