I keep trying to switch back to it on my Mac Pro (I've tried three times in the last 12 months) but after a week or two I always end up switching back to Chrome because the CPU/battery impact it has.
I can have the same amount of tabs/workload in Chrome and my laptop copes fine with good performance. If I do the same in FF (with likely less plugins installed) it often spikes to 100% CPU usage, chews through my battery like nothing else and just gets bogged down/slow. I _want_ to use FF but can't sacrifice having a burning hot laptop with terrible battery life on my lap.
- crispinb 8y agoExact same deal here. That plus the lack of keyboard shortcuts for many extensions keeps pushing me back to Chrome. But I love the account containers enough that I keep trying again. I imagine it will get there eventually.
