Firefox is Slow/Lagging.

Privatemanos · Nov 11, 2013

It came to my attention that the firefox performance dropped to 0 the last 2 months.The loading speed is fine but when i scroll/move down i have something like a lag/shutter effect,but on the other side Chrome/IE works fine,

I read somewhere that this happening from Windows 8/Avast. Is that true? What i can do to fix it?

remove extra extension from your browser and yes avast slows down performance

Make sure you have the latest version which is 25. However, I have used Firefox with Win 7 and XP and on both, it takes a while to open. The good thing I like about Firefox is the complete control of cookies, but I have serious doubts if they are really working as they should. I often find that opening book marks is very slow. The popup blocker does not always work. I suspect that the cause of slow response is built in invisible spyware. I do not use Firefox any more.

I applied a fix in the tutorial here.
If helped me speed up firefox quite a bit and it's similar in speed to chrome.
