As the title says, sporadic lag occurs opening new tabs. I managed to catch it with the f12 performance thing, attached in a screenshot.

I've tried refreshing FF as well as changing accessibility.force_disabled to 1.

These are the only performance options I have, I've disabled them but no change.

Reduce 4 to 3 then 2 then 1 restart and test each time

Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.

and if have to only after testing the above :

You could try this please : Go the Menu then Tools --> Options --> Performance and untick everything. change the recommended size lower then see how it runs. Note: 0 = No Multi-proccesor = slow again. Hardware Acceleration might have also been a issue so turn it off. Run it later and see as you turn things back on and test it, and again. Restart Firefox after making these changes please.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

Hi there, thanks for the swift response.

Accessibility Activated false Prevent Accessibility 1 Accessible Handler Used true Accessibility Instantiator

I unticked the following: 'use recommended performance settings' and 'use hardware acceleration when available'

I am still experiencing the issue.

Cheers.
