Anyone else noted that in Firefox 37.01 HTML5 loads annoyingly slowly and the loading keeps sticking several times: in FF36 YouTube video of 4 minutes would be loaded in few seconds, in FF37.01 it takes half the videos length before loading fully.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Still happens, I don't notice any difference at all.

Do you have any problem with other browsers?

See if there are updates for your graphics drivers https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration

Considering this happens only with the latest version of Firefox and not on the earlier ones?

I'm back to using FF 36.04 and it works fine.

That is your choice to make.
