I've used firefox for years and have always been happy with it. But I just got a brand new Dell XPS 12 and Firefox simply won't run on it. Chrome and IE are speedy and run without a problem. Firefox is slow and constantly freezes up. A video for example will play for about 2 seconds, then stop for about 5, then play again for 2, then stop for 5 again. It is simply unuseable.

I tried all the tips, like deleting my cache. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but the problem did not go away.
