we are using firefox std version in more than 15000 machines in our organisation, recentlty we migrated to all machines to ESR version, but now we are getting escallation, the application working very slow and not opening sometimes

Hi,

I'm having a performance issue with Firefox on my computer. After Firefox has been running for a while, it sometimes becomes noticeably slower when I use several browser-based tools and keep multiple tabs open.

For example, I noticed it while using an online one rep max calculator to work out estimated lifting numbers. The calculator itself is fairly simple, but Firefox occasionally starts using more CPU and the browser feels less responsive.

I have several extensions installed, so I'm not sure whether an extension, a particular tab, or Firefox itself is responsible.

I've already tried closing unnecessary tabs, but the problem can still come back.

Is there a good way to determine whether a Firefox extension is causing the high CPU usage? Would checking about:processes or running Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode be the best way to narrow it down?

I'm especially interested in knowing how to identify the specific extension or tab responsible rather than disabling everything permanently.

Thanks.
