Javascript on FF 35.0.1 on Windows 8.1 Update
On almost every page, FF freezes up for 10-20 seconds and when I do manage to get an error message, it's about a Javascript running slowly and there are the usual choices: Continue, Debug, Stop. This does not happen with Chrome 39.0.2171.95 dev-m or IE 11.0.15.
I have a dual-boot machine and when I use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, that version of FF has no issues.
