Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:132.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/132.0

Steps to reproduce:

NO DATES SHOW ON SIMILAR ITEM, I'M SURE THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED. But I need to file a report so you know it's at least wide spread

What did I do? I opened Firefox and after a few minutes it is so slow it is nearly unresponsive, and sometime IS unresponsive.

Actual results:

See Above - running an Alianware Win11 R-13 with a liquid cooled Nvida 3090 card (but for some reason shows as 3080)- not yet overclocked and , also have 12TH gen i9 (KF) liquid cooled AND 32DDR-5 RAM with custom push-pull fan cooling -- ALL software and bios upgrades to all components is done 64 DDR5 is on order but not yet installed - while this may look like a gaming computer, it's used mostly in distributing grid programs like World Community Grid, Einstein, etc ------ SO the computer SHOULD have enough memory to run Firefox without any problem - Chrome is SCREAMING FAST --

I have been stubborn with Firefox, even when I can't pay certain bills with it since it is not supported and may NOT be supported in the future -- I have been with Mozilla since Netscape -- and on the web since Archie and Veronica were search engines and Pine was one of the better e-mail clients -- along with Elm I believe -

All of this to say I've been on the internet since before it was the web and 'SendMail' was our Yahoo and Gmail -- so I've been around for a bit, and have LOVED and tried to support Mozilla and the EFF -- and WANT to keep Firefox around, I LOVE Firefox because it DID stand up to the FBI in sharing data with them while others DID allow the sharing of user data.

Expected results:

Firefox should have screamed along side Chrome -- but after just a few moments Firefox slows to a crawl - it slowly freezes my computer -- and there is no way that I am running so little information, or that my computer should overflow anywhere for any reason - and yes, I AM virus and Malware free - my main protection is PCMATIC which offers some of the best protection around - it even catches upgrades to Firefox, Yahoo, PrivaZer, etc if I load them before they are whitelisted, --- so FIREFOX MUST HAVE A PROBLEM SOMEWHERE that bogs down my computer to a crawl, and then a stop - starting within the first 10 min or so, and slows it to a crawl after a half hour or sooner.

I am just wanting to let you know that a reasonably good computer with far more faster cpu, graphic card, and ram -- and it's driving me crazy and I DO NOT want to switch to Chrome which seems to be slowly becoming the standard browser - I have VERY few extentions added to Firefox, so that's not the problem unless some of the extentions have conflicts with each other -- in which case you should notify those of us to are still Loyal to a Concept of web-access, -- I thank you in advance - Doc
