The page will load, but it takes over a minute. Any ideas are appreciated. Seems to be fine on FF for PC, and Chrome and IE.

Using FF 32.0.3

You can open the Web Console (Tools > Web Developer). Check on the Network tab to see if you can identify what content is causing this delay.

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Try to disable IPv6 (check for other possible causes as well).

Unfortunately I've tried all of these things already. I have also confirmed across several machines and tried a 'private window'.

Thanks. Any other ideas?

Actually, IPv6 toggle seemed to have helped. My problem is that everyone on a Mac in FF is experiencing the same issue. So is this a host problem? I can't expect all by visitors to toggle that FF setting.
