Hello! Since the latest update to Firefox (153, I believe) my Firefox has not worked. It starts up perfectly fine, but quickly freezes, becomes non-responsive, and needs to be closed. No matter how many times I attempt to open it, the same thing occurs. There’s been been occasions where it hasn’t frozen immediately so I have been able to turn off hardware acceleration as well as remove my theme and disable all my add-ons/extensions, but this has done nothing. Creating a new profile does not help, nor does trying Safe Mode: the same thing happens no matter what. I tried to reinstall the update, but this also did nothing. I haven’t yet tried to uninstall & reinstall or do a Firefox refresh as those are my last resorts and I won’t do them unless I’m sure they’ll make a difference. I haven’t downloaded any new extensions recently, and this only started happening after the most recent update. I’m not sure what else I can try at this point, and am very frustrated.

Noticed that Firefox on IOS was updated about 17 hours ago, so that may explain the current issue. When I open the app on my phone, it will be on the page I was last on, but would be frozen. Cannot add a new tab. Cannot add an address to in address bar. Nothing can be done u til I force quit the app, and then reopen the app afterwards (as long as I give it a couple seconds afterwards). Didn’t have this issue the day before.

On a new laptop with Win11 Home (x86-64) with Firefox just installed, the cache size is 54 MB. When Privacy and Security -> Clear Browsing Data is clicked, Firefox hangs - no input is accepted and nothing appears to be happening. On closing Firefox and then reopening the cache size is reduced and Clear Browsing Data operates as expected.

Why is the cache size (54 MB) so large? Why does Clear Browsing Data hang Firefox?

Recently (past few weeks) I’ve found Firefox on my iPhone (iOS 26.5.2) has stopped loading. I’ll open the app and it won’t load the page at all. It also doesn’t let me reload the page, add tabs, or close tabs. Occasionally it will fix if I click a link from an SMS or something that then opens in the app. Quitting Firefox doesn’t work, restarting my phone also doesn’t work.

An 8 second delay when I open Firefox for the first time.. Once it has been opened once, it reopens immediately when required. The problem has been present since I installed Linux Mint 9 months ago, Linux Mint 22.2 then, since upgraded to 22.3 Zena. I can live with it, but it is very frustrating! I have tried the obvious things like removing extensions, but I suspect it is a "Linux" connectivity problem rather than a "Mozilla" problem.

Dear Mozilla Firefox Support Team,

I have been a loyal Firefox user for many years because I have always appreciated its speed, privacy, and reliability. However, I have noticed that Firefox has become slower over time, and I am disappointed with its current performance.

The browser feels increasingly sluggish during everyday use. One of the biggest issues I experience is with YouTube, where videos often do not play as smoothly as they should. I also notice that Firefox consumes a significant amount of RAM, even when only a few tabs are open, which affects the overall performance of my computer.

I sincerely hope the Firefox team will prioritize performance optimization in upcoming updates. Many users, including me, want a browser that is fast, lightweight, responsive, and efficient with system resources. Speed and smooth performance are some of the main reasons people choose a browser, and I would love to see Firefox become the quickest browser again.

Please continue improving memory management, reduce unnecessary resource usage, and optimize YouTube and other modern websites for a smoother browsing experience.

Thank you for your hard work and for listening to user feedback. I hope future releases will focus on making Firefox faster, lighter, and more responsive.

Watching any Bilibili live stream causes severe performance issues. The main problems I can observe are intermittent severe mouse cursor stuttering/frame drops or the cursor becoming unresponsive, accompanied by the taskbar process (explorer.exe) intermittently restarting.

I have tried disabling the Picture-in-Picture feature and tampermonkey add-on, modifying the Windows 11 registry to turn off MPO (Multiplane Overlay), adjusting browser hardware acceleration, and tweaking related settings in about:config, but none of these have been able to prevent the issue.

Hello everyone,

I've recently noticed that Firefox has become slower than usual. Some websites take a long time to load, and occasionally the browser feels unresponsive even though my internet connection seems to be working fine. I've already tried restarting Firefox and clearing the cache, but the issue still occurs.

Has anyone experienced something similar or found a solution that improved Firefox's performance? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you!
