Firefox-mienskipsfoarum

Firefox continues to freeze up even after many FF updates. I am running Ubuntu 22.04LTS. Firefox freezes for no apparent reason. I am lucky if I can just close the browser. But often times I must do a hard shutdown of my laptop. Since the problem first appeared about six (?) months ago there have been a number of Firefox updates, but this problem continues. When will it be fixed finally?

Hello Community,

I have been experiencing significant issues with Firefox for the past couple of months. The main concern is high CPU and RAM consumption during video playback, especially on YouTube.

This issue started appearing only for the past month or two; it was never present before on the same system, and no significant hardware changes have been made.

Crucially, this problem is exclusive to Firefox. I have tested video playback on other browsers such as Google Chrome, Brave, and Microsoft Edge, and do not face any similar performance issues with them.

Your assistance in resolving this is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using Firefox as my primary browser and overall it works great, but I’ve noticed a slowdown pattern during longer sessions and wanted to compare notes with the community.

After running the browser for several hours with many tabs open, I sometimes see delayed responses when switching tabs, typing in text fields, or opening menus. Nothing crashes, but the interface feels heavier until I restart the browser. Once restarted, performance goes back to normal.

I’ve already tried reviewing extensions, disabling a few that I don’t use often, and checking memory usage in about:performance. The numbers go up as expected with more tabs, but I’m not sure how to judge what is considered normal versus problematic.

Because the issue improves after restart, I’m wondering whether this is typical resource buildup, session handling, or something specific I should be tuning.

How do experienced users usually approach diagnosing gradual slowdowns like this? Are there particular indicators in the built-in tools that suggest a real problem rather than expected behavior?

While reading more about how browsers manage memory over time, I found this general explanation helpful for understanding the bigger picture:

I have recently begun to have hard 'hangs' while attempting to view a video on a site I'm already connected to. I've tried to overcome these hangs, but they continue to happen even after firefox has been in use for a short time. I have to restart my computer, since the hang is locking up all control input.

Roblox was blocked on my device and I wanted to get it unblocked and play it on Infrexa with Firefox. I already followed steps mentioned on the official webpage: https://www.infrexa.com/now-gg-roblox-login-and-play-roblox-unblocked-on-your-browser so please don't advise similar troubleshooting methods.

Now I am able to play roblox but the problem is that when I play the Roblox through "Mozilla Firefox" it shows an error "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and then becomes unresponsive when pressing refresh button, the fan gets faster and device heats up with too much hanging. But when I open the Roblox through "Chrome" it comparatively works good and asks for login details and after redirection it allows me to play Roblox Unblocked without any issue. "Roblox unblocked" here simply means a technical sense, meaning “not crashing” or “free from software or network errors and or browser malfunction".

I have been using Firefox for a long time and my passwords and user ids are saved in the browser so I want to continue using "Firefox" as default browser but I am having the issue in playing roblox unblocked and other games through Firefox browser. I think the current issue that I have started facing is especially after a recent windows update.

I also tried many other gaming platforms like Official Roblox.com, Now.gg Roblox, easyfun.gg and web.cloudmoonapp.com but all of them faced same issues on Firefox while running ok on Chrome.

I am currently running Windows 11 (25H2 Licensed version). I want to play roblox unblocked on my device using Firefox (updated). My parents have already allowed me to play Roblox and I am playing it on my own device and internet connection. Please fix the browser issue and unblock Roblox for me. Please also check my browser version against Windows 11 compatibility if possible.

If you fix this issue for me, I will be grateful to you.
