User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:66.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/66.0

Steps to reproduce:

CPU usage 1-5% while idle, but jumps to 18-22% while typing an email or while scrolling the email messages. Words appear about 2-3 seconds delay, which is really frustrating. I see that the version is noted as (60.6.1 (32-bit)) , but my system is Windows 10 Pro x64. Tried with disabling the add-ons but did not help. I don't have problem with any other application.

Actual results:

Too too Slow, CPU Hungry. Attached my troubleshooting notes that is copied from Thunderbird

Expected results:

Should not be sluggish and should not be hungry on resource.
Please fix, i really like the email and this is making me really frustrated.

    -- If problem is came back, then cause is likely a Thunderbird addon - eliminate them by disabling each one at a time in Tools | addons | extensions and restarting
  • If results are unclear ... possibilities include temporary conditions such as contention from other running programs, downloads related to windows update, ...
