Firefox "not responding" after updates

Ed LeRoy

I've used Firefox for years and am embarrassed to submit this question via Chrome. Lately, almost invariably after updating, Firefox shows "not responding" if you click anywhere in the window. Eventually, maybe after half an hour, it does respond, and everything works like it always did. If this is normal behavior for Firefox, so be it, but it seems peculiar to me. Advice?
