Hi,

we start Firefox with Firefox.exe -Profile h:\Firefox on a smb filer.

I observe random slow starts. Slow means up to 2 minutes until a window comes up instead of usually a few seconds.

I can see the parent.lock immediatly after starting. In case of a slow start there is no further activity in the directory for a long time.

Any ideas how to further debug the case?

thanks a lot

Markus

The Problem is the filer definitely.

At random times there is no problem write files or read, but on delete the explorer may block up to 5 minutes.

Please consider turning on send info to Mozilla from with in Firefox before posting a question. This helps us help you. I have no info from your system that would help see things that cause issues. What version Firefox, list- add-ons, what OS , I have no info, expand on issue ?

I tried share data without success.

The problem "slow start" is random and happens about 1 from 5 starts. Its not specific to version 59.0.2 because i observed it with earlier versions since quantum. No plugins. 4-5 Session tabs. profile mainly default settings except: - redirected cache to local disk - different performance settings

I was looking for ideas how to debug this case. The profile is redirected to a file share. I can see parent.lock but no further activity in the profile directory in case of a slow start.

I just experienced a "slow start":

parent.lock is written immediatly after 4 minutes cookies.sqlite-shm and cookie.sqlite-wal after 7 minutes Firefox starts.

However it seems to be a network-config problem at our site. In the same time Microsoft Word blocked for about 3 minutes after closing a document on this network drive. Browsing the drive with explorer or opening text files from it stays snappy during this "blocking time". It affects so far Firefox and Office.
