>  HEAVY firefox setup, with many open windows

If hardware rendering is enabled, one can't have many OpenGL windows on the proprietary Nvidia driver. Windows are blocking each other. The more windows you open, the less fps you get.

Workaround: Open about:config, set gfx.swap-interval.glx to false and restart Firefox.

Workaround: Open about:config, set gfx.swap-interval.glx to false and restart Firefox.
