I am posting this simply because I'm desperate. Firefox has always to me, been a crapply browser. In fact, I rather use IE over it simply because it runs better. I just did a fresh install of windows 7 to prep for the 10 release. Completed all updates and all and then installed firefox and chrome. I use Chrome for Netflix and such on one screen and firefox for all my browsing and work related stuff. Normally I never use Firefox as said before but, for whatever reason chrome doesn't work with my work sites and firefox does so I'm forced to deal with it. The issue is, IT RUNS SO SLOW compared to chrome. I usually have about 8 tabs open, before on chrome, I opened 50 and never had an issue. I have 16 go of dark and do a lot of high end gaming yet a simple browser has issues running. Please, don't give me the "run in safe mode and remove addons" I've done all your troubleshooting steps and it still stutters and hangs when on simple Web pages or when I need to complete a captcha. This is firefox'a final shot. I'm not trying to start a flame war or troll, I'm just literally fed up and can't believe this browser was listed in the Tech radar top 5. Please help me.

Sorry. Firefox should do better than that, and I am sure it does for most users.

We can never guarantee to resolve or fix all issues. I can say that: Unfortunately unless you are willing to try the basic troubleshooting steps, like running in Firefox's safemode, and with all plugins disabled it is extremely unlikely we will be able to help you.
