Firefox slowing and consuming great amount of RAM with a specific website firstpost.com
Hi,
I am facing this issue since few days only, whenever I open website firstpost.com firefox slows down considerably and consumes huge amount of RAM.
I am running windows 8 enterprise with Intel core i7 processor and 8 gb RAM. I have Flashgot and Adblock Plus installed as extensions..
Can you please help me understand if this is Firefox issue or its the Website which is hurting the performance.

Hi FredMcD,
Sorry didnt help with performance with that site. The thing is if i open it with chrome the site works fine.
This is my go to website for news so its really bugging me not to be able to browse normally.
Thanks for trying to resolve.
Was there any change with Firefox in Safe Mode?
Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
