Why does firefox have trouble scrolling up and down?
happens in facebook, google+, and even addon screen, and even this screen (the question form i am typing in right now) when i try to scroll up or down it takes a second or so and then jumps, rather than scrolling

Try to increase the value of the general.smoothScroll.mouseWheel.durationMaxMS pref on the about:config page a higher value like 1000 to see if that makes a difference with smooth scrolling enabled.

I'm not sure how to quite fix this problem but you can try doing the following to check if your settings are correct:
- 1 Go to options and select "Advanced".
- 2 In "Advanced" go to the "General" tab.
- 3 Make sure you have the following checked.
* Use autoscrolling
* Use smooth scrolling
* Use hardware acceleration when available

i am curious what autoscrolling does, no difference; the others were checked already i think it has to do with the memory stack becoming too large, after much browsing, multiple tabs, etc. it works ok, if it is recently opened with just a few tabs ... what really worked for me was: yet-another-smooth-scrolling

That sounds like the right answer, for the smoothscrolling thing at least. I don't think it addresses the problem with memory bloat, but that seems to be a systemic problem with firefox. Probably needs a complete rewrite. I've heard as much, anyway.
