Bug 1796162 Comment 5 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

I've found a curious behavior with a similar test page and steps:
1. Install build (so that Accessible Handler Used is TRUE)
2. Launch NVDA (and update to 2022.4)
3. Launch Firefox (with a new profile, CTW is off in beta and release).
4. Load https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I and scroll the page to observe when it becomes responsive.

Exected: The browser does not freeze and it does not show performance issues. NVDA reads the page.

Actual: The browser freezes for as long as a minute and then, it also shows performance issues for a few seconds.

The curious part is that Beta MSIX build shows a longer freeze and UI stutter until it behaves as expected:
- Beta v110.0b8 MSIX: a ~1-minute freeze and ~30-second UI stutter while scrolling the page. 
(Performance Profile: https://share.firefox.dev/3DyRTE9 )
- Beta v110.0b8 exe install: a ~15-second freeze and ~20-second UI stutter while scrolling the page.
(Performance Profile: https://share.firefox.dev/3WTptM8 )

Jamie, should I log a new bug with this?

- also, there's no significand difference between the behaviors of the Release MSIX and Release exe install:
both have a ~15-second freeze and ~20-second UI stutter while scrolling the page.

* This was tested in Windows 10.
