Firefox was running really really horribly on my system for a long time and I could not figure out why. It reached the point that I mostly switched to Chrome last week.
But then I went in and was disabling some extensions which I suspected might be causing the problem. It seems to be running better now. The one extension I disabled which I think might have been causing an issue – unfortunately an extension I love – is called Hide Caption Titlebar Plus.
The other one I suspected was Classic Theme Restorer. I can live without Hide Caption Titlebar Plus, but doing without Classic Theme Restorer is suffering for me. Two features which are essential to me from the latter are having the old-style squared tabs, and having the tab bar below the bookmark and location bars.
I have since thus reenabled Classic Theme Restorer and FF seems to be still doing well. Very relieved about this as I really do prefer Firefox and there’s no comparison with any other browsers in terms of the rich variety of extensions available.
