Hi all,

Since 14th of February (installation of the 27.0.1 Firefox version), web pages displaying is VERY slow even for web pages from the localhost (I develop intranet and extranet PHP apps). I know my computer is old (XP1.8MHz/WinXP pro, 2 GB ram) but really enough for this type of development. For example, displaying the PHPmyAdmin page on local takes more than 30 seconds instead of the 5 or 6 before the last Firefox update.

Is there a problem with this new release?

Thanks a lot for your support.

Regards, A.

Have you been running virus and malware scans?

Yes I did => nothing to report. The AV and the firewall are effective and up to date. To be noted that the problem is reversed by uninstalling Firefox then installing Ver 27 or 26 => speed as usual. Then the problem come back if I leave the autoupdate ON when Firefox updates automatically to Ver 27.0.1.

Now auto update is switched off until the problem is solved by FF team (if possible).
