3 tabs open, left firefox idle on pc and walked away for an hour. Came back, system barely responsive, managed to grab a screenshot. This happens every single day. If I leave firefox idle, or in background for any amount of time, it eats up all the ram and the system grinds to a halt and crashes. Can't get logs, or use profiler. This happens every single day, multiple times per day and only when firefox is in background or pc is idle. I don't use more than 3-4 tabs, this happens on random websites, sometimes even when no websites are open. I can literally open firefox with no tabs and let it sit idle and same thing happens.

Firefox (x64 en-US) is our primary browser on 2 different computers: a desktop and an HP laptop. Within days of each other, both Firefox browsers on the two computers began crashing whenever we tried to use them. There has been no error message. Nothing we have done has helped, though we have only tried to fix it on the desktop. We have uninstalled it and reinstalled it on the desktop. We have refreshed the reinstalled version. We have opened it in Troubleshoot mode and it still crashed within 15 seconds. Below are the 4 most recent crash reports from today's crashes:

Crash ID: bp-9104d928-4968-488e-ac3d-ed3000231211 Crash ID: bp-a4d3f2d0-6e18-4c22-85db-655d70231211 Crash ID: bp-dd6eafed-2fd7-4fb7-9a5b-960ac0231211 Crash ID: bp-3f979015-56d9-4a56-8f0f-d04f50231211

Hello, I have a problem with Firefox on (only) the vive.com site. It shows a fast (same as Chrome/Opera) loading, but only on firefox it stays @ 99% a very long time, whereas on other browsers, in the instant, you can see the content of the page. You can test for example on that page: https://developer.vive.com/resources/vive-sense/

I work in a society where I need to have a brower with proxy support & security (firefox is the best to me) but that can work without waiting minutes to access a page, whereas it has been downloaded fast.

Opera is fast on vive.com, but that shit doesn't have proxy support, so I need configure firewall, put a gateway, and I really hate, it's a pure security fail (never put a gateway on windows, microsoft takes the control of your windows and scan your datas). We don't wish that in our society.

So I'm there to report you that, I think there is a problem and I really don't understand what can do firefox to make the user wait so much time, and it's not related to the processor, it's the same on my crappy laptop or on a brand new powerful 3D station. With opera, it's really in a second, and with firefox, it's a minute. Really weird.

When I open firefox for the first time or after reboot or logout the internet doesn't connect immediately and it need almost 1 minute or more. I tried so many solutions, but they didn't work. If I reset Firefox, then the problem is fixed, but after some days, it's the same problem.

I've had this problem for a while and it's kept me from actually using the program. At any given time when I try to run the application, it never lasts for more than a couple seconds before it suddenly stops with no warning. Whenever I get these crashes, the Crash Reporter never opens. Because of this issue I can't open it in troubleshooting mode. At this point I have tried fully resetting my PC twice, uninstalling McAfee, had multiple malware scans, and have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox itself multiple times. I'm really not all that good at operating computers, I just kind of know how to navigate files. I don't know what else to do at this point.

No matter where I go I get the error message: Error code: SEC_ERROR_KEYGEN_FAIL before the update I was able to open my bookmarks and other websites with no issues. It is now totally unusable. Please help I like Firefox over Chrome and Edge.

Dear Mozilla/Firefox, in the past week or so Firefox is noticeably slower to load than Norton Secure or Google Chrome. Running from a shortcut or pasting the same link into the address bar, Firefox takes around 25 seconds to load where Norton is almost instant. There are features of Firefox that I prefer over other browsers so hope you can guide me how to fix this. Thank you,
