Older 2GHZ machine, 2GB. This was adaquate for 50 open tabs in FF up to last fall. Since late 2013/now, FF has slowed with each update; it's now nearly useless. I have previously used safe mode, this "fix" 1. Did not fix the problem, because it is FF no the add-ons that are broken and 2. Resulted in FF *not* returning to its previous state once started in normal mode; it had forgotten session history including many closed windows. I use Session Manager to facilitate organizing and saving items interest.

Does Mozilla plan to fix the resource hog problem? If not, I'll have to stop using FF, it's too slow and obviously has some tangle of code underneath. 2 GHZ is more than enough to run a browser, even with dozens of tabs. It was a great browser, don't know what happened.

Hi Atanasoff. Have you looked at this thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../985969?esab=a&as=s&r=0&page=1 ??

The workaround from Jigebren https://support.mozilla.org/fr/questi.../985969#answer-534869 certainly fixed v.27 and v.27.0.1 for me, but it doesn't work for v.28.

Thanks. Since I had auto-update set (that's the default I believe) I'm now on version 28, so the workaround is not expected to function. I deleted ",cairo" in gfx ... azure, but not am expecting much.

Update, for others who have this issue: Deleting " ,cairo" on FF 28 did nothing. Zip. Zero.

Thanks for the tip, but I'll have to try something else.

Hi Atansoff.

Yes - the fix does not work in v.28. I reinstalled v.27.0.1 - see here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../985969?page=4#answer-548333

and used Jigebren's fix. See here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../985969#answer-534869

Running fine on 27.0.1 now. When the problem is fixed I'll upgrade.
