That is not normal behavior. Have you tried disabling addons to see if that may be the problem? Otherwise I'd suggest trying a new profile (if you've been using Firefox for a long time. Firefox Sync can help you keep your settings as you migrate to a new profile.)
- AndrewDucker 14y agoIt could be addons. Hard to tell, I'm running several. I haven't recreated my profile in a while, possibly time to give that a go.
- robin_reala 14y agoBefore you recreate your entire profile, try the new ‘reset Firefox’ button: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fi...
- barrkel 14y agoI just diagnosed and fixed a pausing issue with one of my Firefox extensions. The hard part is getting a reproducible case. But once you do, it's usually just a matter of doing a binary search through extensions, enabling and disabling half the candidates until the culprit is found. A quick verification can be to start Firefox with the -profilemanager flag and create a new profile, and verify if it does or does not occur in a completely fresh profile. In my case, pauses came from FoxyProxy regular expression pattern matching on urls where I was using: (.*\.)* to match subdomains. The issue went away when I did: (?:.*\.)? instead - non-capture, and of course noticing that . matched \. too.
