Does anyone know this feature of Firefox?
- discreditable 12y agoIt's in Nightly. I've seen it a few times. It appears as a bar across the bottom of your screen telling you x addon may be causing this page to load slowly. From there you have the option to disable the addon, ignore the message, or ignore permanently. I saw it for uBlock, HTTPSEverywhere, and reddit enhancement suite, and amazonsmile redirect. In each scenario I felt it was well worth the tradeoff to run a little more slowly.

- agumonkey 12y agoGood to know, I was starting to think either noscript/ublock were badly written, badly integrated or that Firefox had deep issues.

- fabrice_d 12y agoIt's in current nightly builds. You get a status bar telling you that such add-on is taking to long when you load a page.
