I don't know if it's just my computer, but Firefox lags horribly on my Mac after a certain amount of usage whereby I always have to restart the browser because the experience after a certain amount of usage, even if there's only one or two tabs open, is unbearable. And right now, the only add-on I have on it as uBlock Origin.
Whereas Chrome can have over a dozen tabs open and it still operates well. Which is a shame because I was hoping to switch over back to Firefox.
- decebalus1 10y agoInteresting. I have the exact opposite experience on Mac. Chrome becomes unusable after about 15 tabs and especially after leaving it open for more than 2-3 days. Firefox is the only decent browser I can use on my Macbook.
- bitshift955 10y agoWhat version are you running? My anecdotal counterpoint is that I find Firefox excellently performant these days despite heavy use. The upcoming Quantum work will improve speed generally and specifically for multiple core setups. Electrolysis in the latest versions will also help prevent "bad tabs" from slowing the whole browser.
