Many sites load slowly or time out
I've had a problem recently with some sites (such as support.apple.com, but also others) loading very slowly or not loading at all.
- Restarting Firefox fixes it for a short while
- I've tried changing to No Proxy from Use System Proxy Settings - this, like restarting, helped for a short while
- Unchecking DNS over HTTPS: DID resolve the problem but I'm curious as to why. I enable it with Safari with no problem.

Well, if you read my post carefully it contains answers. While I didn't state it explicitly, the fact that I mentioned Safari means that I have a Mac, and CCleaner is useless on a Mac, because everything that it purports to do (and doesn't do that well) is built in to MacOS. The problem is strictly with Firefox, not Safari, Chrome, or any other browser.
And I also said that I fixed it by changing a Firefox setting; what I'm really looking for is why that setting caused the problem, as it's a useful capability that I would like to use.
