I am using Firefox 67.0.4 (64-bit) under OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 on a MacBook Pro 15-inh mid-2010. The site forecast.weather.gov takes 7-10 or more secs to load in Firefox but 1-2 secs in Chrome. Please don't tell me that the MacBook or OS X are old because that applies equally to Chrome on the same machine. Why is Firefox so slow to load from this site?

Hello,

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:

  1. (Firefox 57 and above) Click the Library button 57 library icon and choose History.
    (Click the menu button New Fx Menu and choose History in older Firefox versions.)
  2. In the History menu, choose "Clear Recent History...".
  3. Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
  4. Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
  5. From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
  6. Now click the "Clear Now" button.

Further information can be found in the Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

You can check the Network Monitor to see how long it takes to load content.

If necessary use "Ctrl+F5" or "Ctrl+Shift+R" (Mac: Command+Shift+R) to reload the page and bypass the cache to generate a fresh log.
