Since the last Firefox update, normally used web pages load very slowly or time out. When clicking on a bookmark the page loads very slow so I stop the page from loading and hit refresh and it loads almost instantly like it normally used to do. Any fixes available? Thank you, Dan.

Hi! I’ve noticed that the site with Slider Revolution installed opens quite slowly in my browser. Do you have any idea what this might be related to? In other browsers, it seems to load just fine. Thanks in advance for your help! Link: https://kasiinod-ee.ee/

Hi everyone,

I am facing a strange issue with web browsers on my HP system after a recent Windows update. No matter which browser I use Chrome, Firefox, or even Edge webpages take much longer to load than usual. The connection itself is stable because downloads and streaming work without any problem, but normal browsing feels unusually slow.

I have already cleared the cache, disabled extensions, reset the DNS settings, and restarted the router. The issue still appears across all browsers. This started immediately after the last Windows update, so I am unsure whether this is a compatibility issue, a driver problem, or something in the network configuration.

If anyone has seen this behavior before or knows what additional steps I should check, I would really appreciate your guidance.

Thank you.

Duck duck search via Firefox has become painfully slow, although if Google search is used the speed is OK. I have cleared caches, cookies etc without any improvement. Firefox 148.0.2, Windows10. Is this a recognised current problem?

Greetings, I have a problem with Firefox taking too long to load websites after login, while Edge loads websites immediately. It happens every time I lift the laptop lid and login. I have restarted Windows 11 and tested the load times of Firefox and Edge a while ago by going to Google. Edge loaded Google after 5 seconds, while Firefox 3 minutes and 25 seconds. That's long. Sometimes Firefox loads a webpage 10 minutes after login.

What could be the issue here and how do I fix it? I have the following extensions and I'm sure that they do not hinder Firefox.

Since the 145.0.2 update web pages are loading very sloooooooow. Also, images are loading very slowly, if they load at all. At the start pages would not load at all then about a week they started loading but very slow as mentioned. Any ideas/help will be very much appreciated. I am using Windows 11.

Windows11，firefox版本149.0，增强型跟踪保护设置为标准，基于 HTTPS 的 DNS”启用策略为默认保护，扩展全关。在我打开www.douyin.com的标签页时，通常要加载5秒钟甚至10秒钟，视频才会播放（如图）。作为对比，我在edge浏览器上登陆了同一个抖音账号，打开同样的书签页面，edge并未出现明显加载画面，在chrome上打开未登陆的抖音标签页也未出现明显加载画面。这个情况也许是从近期firefox自动更新后出现的？请问如何解决

Hi, I've noticed that web pages load slower recently. As all of the recent updates seem to be about adding AI features to the browser, I can only assume that this is the problem. I have disabled the .ml. settings and saw an improvement in performance, but performance is still degrading over time as new updates release, so I'm guessing that I missed something in the settings.

I'm also concerned about privacy. As these AI features make use of tools that cannot always be run completely locally, it increases vulnerability to provide very little value, if any at all. I would argue that it makes the browser worse rather than better, so that's not worth any level of risk to me.

If these features continue to be expanded then I will look for an alternative browser. I know that it is tough to find browsers which aren't Chromium-based these days, but it's not impossible. Firefox is not the only choice.

The server at iso.scanfor.scanfor.be is taking too long to respond. iso.scanfor.scanfor.be is an unsecure (http) INTRANET site not publicly acessible (local server). At same time other browsers are perfectly able to access the site! So there is NO connection issue... This problem happens mostly in the morning, and solves itself during the course of the day  :)

Anyone any idea where to look for an issue???
