Reports about slowness with Adblock Plus 2.9

  1. Hi, just a general heads-up - there are a number of user reports that the latest version of ABP (released a week ago) could cause severe delays/freezes/slowness. this obviously won't affect all adblock users, since we're not drowning in questions on the forum about this, but it's worth keeping in mind when you see users complaining about performance issues.

    Yes, we are aware of these reports but we haven't reproduced this issue ourselves yet. I'm going to look into this on Tuesday (tomorrow being a bank holiday in Germany).

    Maybe I can put it best like this : Eyeo.com is to Adblock Plus, what Microsoft is to Windows, not quite, but : Adblock Plus is a registrered trademark of eyeo GmbH

    (couldn't find a way to report this on : https://adblockplus.org/ )
