High iGPU load when watching streams in firefox.
System:
Windows 10 pro 22h2 19045.3516
Intel i5-10200h with UHD 620
Driver 31.0.101.2125
Firefox ESR 115.3.0
When watching streams in firefox, I noticed that overall iGPU load is very high, up to 70%, a lot higher than watching 1080p movie with dedicated player.
I found that the firefox actually only shares 10~20 iGPU load, the rest are from DWM, which load is up to 40% sometimes.
Also found if I switch from the tab with streaming page to another normal webpage, DWM immediately drops its usage to about 2%, firefox still uses some load as it's still decoding. DWM usage rises if I switch back.
I tried force firefox to use nvidia dGPU, firefox does use nvidia card to decode, but the DWM problem said above still apply.
See attatched image as prove.

@EBK21, Why are you using Firefox ESR 115.3.0 on Windows 10? Did you update?

I need to use addons not in the addons workshop. But developer editions updates too frequently for me.
Looks like a driver bug. It's even worse with chrome..
