Bug 217713: Frequent freezes with recent www/firefox
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D217713



--- Description ---
For several weeks Firefox has been performing horribly. Loading  page (most=
 any
with significant javascript) will hit several freezes. The whole browser wi=
ll
lock up for several seconds. For some Google tools and things like Facebook=
, it
may freeze more than once when loading a single page.

No sure exactly when this started. At first I thought it would clear up eit=
her
when I rebooted my system, restarted Firefox, or updated to a new version. =
None
of these seems to have helped.

Any ideas on this? I may have to start using chromium, which I don't want d=
ue
to lack of several features, especially NoScript. Chromium show no such del=
ays.
