Firefox 4.0 loads pages very slowly - will this be fixed soon?

I upgraded to version 4.0 and it is much slower in page loading then any of your previous versions. Are you going to be fixing this problem soon? Or do I need to look for a different web browser to use... Very disappointing! So much for FASTER than before - NOT!

It will work again if McAfee does a full update...

Thank you for the link, but I am not sure how this is going to help me: I am not booting straight to an X session, but prefer to log into TTY1 and have my login shell handle everything from there.
Here is the relevant part of my .zprofile:
if (( UID )); then
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec systemd --user
fi
As far as I understand, your method works if I enable the [email protected] template when actually booting straight to X.

My iPad 2 loads pages very slowly

My iPad 2 loads pages very slowly, especially on Facebook . It used to load instantly, now can take a minute or longer.

Try using the Facebook app instead.

Firefox 5.0 won't work with mcafee site advisor-will this be fixed soon?

When I downloaded firefox 5.0 it checks for incompatible add on etc. and it deleted mcafee site advisor which shows which web sites are safe to use. I went back to firefox 4.0 because it works with site advisor. I'd like to use the newest form of firefox, but want mcafee site advisor enabled. Will this be fixed?

Firefox 28, 29 and 30 load pages very slowly - Google Chrome is OK on the same PC...?

Windows XP SP2 on a Dell Precision 340, Pentium 4, 2GB RAM, two GeForce MX4000 graphics cards, AVG Internet Security 2014. Broadband connection with download speeds up to about 27Mb/s.
I get the same symptoms on a homebuilt system with an almost identical spec.
Internet pages with any graphics at all load very slowly. Reliable websites like BBC News can take at least 30 seconds to open, making Firefox unusable for surfing.
Google Chrome, on the same PC, opens the same pages in about 4 seconds.
Firefox running under Ubuntu Studio 9, on the homebuilt PC, is also fine, so I don't think it's my internet connection.
Firefox 30, on Windows 7 64-bit Professional with Norman Endpoint Security, is fine on my work laptop.
What's slowng down Firefox 30 on my Windows XP machines please?

Sorry you are having problems. Thanks for a good descriptive post. There is a testcase; see under; does the globe spin slowly ?
Just a hunch at the moment but maybe the problem described in this thread.

LSP causes firefox to load pages very slowly

I'm a developer for a company that produces content filtering software. Our filtering component is an LSP that monitors network traffic. For some time now, we've been experiencing periodic issues with Firefox and our LSP.
This is not a crash, and Firefox is not frozen. But when you try to load a page, Firefox comes to a point where it just spins trying to access the same socket over and over again. Clearly our LSP is doing something that Firefox doesn't like, but eventually Firefox breaks out of the spinning and loads the page.
I'd like to know if there is someone involved with Firefox development that I can communicate with to resolve this issue.

Hi coverton,
I did pm you:
You may not easily see this. Initially I do no want to answer your question on the forum, as an answer may then deter others from replying. This is not something that I understand but my suggestions are:
you say for some time you have had a problem 
if this is a Firefox regression which version did it occur on 
file a bug on bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=dupes|Firefox
 or you may in fact find it is a known issue, an example of a bug fixed in Firefox 13 is
 Bug 712363 - SSL connections do not work correctly when not managed by the socket transport service (including especially when the socket is not non-blocking)
 have a look through the mailing lists and forums you may find a useful one http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/
 also consider looking on the various mozillazine forums http://forums.mozillazine.org/index.php
This sort of problem is probably slightly outside the range of problems we attempt to solve on this forum.
My view is that basically if the problem clearly does not exist in one version of firefox, but does from a certain later version then there was some sort of change, and if that was not intentional it is a regression and appropriate to file a bug for. ( If the change was intentional there will almost definitely be a bug filed documenting the change. )
If you do post a bug suggestions would be
* First try it in the latest nightly just in case the problem was fixed. http://nightly.mozilla.org/
*Try to narrow down a regression window, so please test in Firefox 10 and 11.
*There is a tool for narrowing down regressions by automatically downloading a bissected range of Nightly builds and running them in turn with a dialogue to confirm or otherwise that there is a problem (last time I tried the tool I had a problem with it but it was probably user error, or is now fixed )
** see https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression
Obviously you will need to rule out that it is due to changes in third party software, and to demonstrate the problem you will need some reproducible steps, so it could be appropriate to try discussing the problem on a forum in order to build some sort of test case prior to filing a bug.
As you have asked here it would be useful to know what happens so please post back if you file a bug or find a forum or mailing list that provides a solution.
Good Luck
P.S. I note you filed '''''Bug 756216 - LSP Causes Firefox to Load pages slowly '''''

Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1 loads pages very slowly with Windows XP 64 bit version

Our company has purchased Dell Precision T3500 workstations with Intel XEON processor and 6 Gb of RAM. The operating system is Windows XP 64-bit version. The systems came with Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1. Each one of these workstations load PDF files into Acrobat very slowly. Does anyone have a answer why?

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?series=16&Software=True
2. Extract the files in the archive to somewhere like c:\win64drivers\ethernet
3. Once inside Win XP 64, do the following:
a. Click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager
b. Go down to the "Other Devices" section (they'll have yellow ?'s)
c. Right click on the ethernet controller and click "Update Driver"
d. Click "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)"
e. Click "Dont search. I will choose the driver to install."
f. Double click the "Network Adapter" entry, and then click "Have Disk..."
g. Select the directory which you extracted the driver files to
i. You will get messages saying that Windows cannot verify that the driver matches your hardware, and that the driver is not WHQL certified. Ignore these and click "Continue"/"Install Anyways" and your RealTek RTL8169/8110 ethernet adapter will spring to life
after i have done this the pc just stops. and if i reboot it stops at the loading screen :/ can you tell me whats wrong i got a k8t neo serie card and windows 64 bit edition
edit: i did it :D works now

I have upgraded twice to FF 4.0 and both times I have had major problems with it not responding and loading pages very slowly.

I have once again gone back to the older 3.6 version. I love the layout of the new 4.0, but I hate all the lagtime and the fact that it stops responding every few minutes. Will this be addressed? I would much rather have the latest version, but the lags are annoying.

I have also updated to the newest version and enjoyed the new look and layout how ever I have experienced confusing issues. For a few months 4.0 ran without a hitch no problem in sight then all of a sudden each time I loaded any link I would experience no indication of it working. Loading up task manager it was running at least twice at demanding memory usage was also high. The cpu usage was just as it always was which was below 5% even with other programs running. It constantly shows that the browser is "(not responsive)"

Firefox is slow in responding to commands and loads pages very slowly.

I'm unable to use Firefox most of the time because commands are slow in running( like Scrolling down a page.). Most pages take forever to load and while they are doing so. Navigation crawls to a stop. I'm now using Chromium by Google because it's faster and I can continue to work the page while it finishes loading.

Thanks for replying Sisham.
My system meets all the requirements. I agree with you that with a better hardware installed the software will be much more usable, but I feel that, since my system is OK with the requirements, Illustrator should work much better, at least on the basic tasks. I'm especially concerned because Illustrator CS6 worked fine, and that version of Illustrator has got the same system requirements, so I'm not sure that with a better hardware the program would run normally.
There's no difference in managing complex files with multiple linked images or small low resolution files with a couple of objects: I have this delay in zooming and panning, selecting, moving objects...
I'm wondering if I should check any specific setting inside the program.

Firefox and Thunderbird are using a lot of memory and load pages very slowly!

CPU levels are going through the roof when using Thunderbird and Firefox.
Both programs are freshly installed on a new and also freshly installed version of windows 7!
Loading of my pages is taking forever and most pages don't load at all.
My email is [email protected]
My notebook got so hot that it turned itself off!
Memory is above 250 KB for firefox and Thunderbird above 150 kb!

I do not have a ComObjects folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files. That is not part of Firefox.
wscript.exe is a utility included with Windows to run scripts at the system level. It generally is not used by major programs. If update.exe is starting up with Windows, you may be able to find the script that wscript.exe is running using [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx Autoruns].
It definitely sounds viral. I suggest deleting the update.exe file, although Windows might prevent you from doing that until you kill all related processes. And if you have a persistent infection, the file may be restored or re-downloaded.
It might be easiest to seek assistance from a forum more dedicated to malware cleanups such as the following:

Hope you get it removed.

Software upgrade iOS 6.1.2 - since upgrading my software the battery life on my iPhone 4 goes down very quickly, will this be fixed with a further upgrade?

Just signing into this site and posting a question has used 21% of my battery life! Surely that's not right. Is Apple going to issue another upgrade from iOS 6.1.2 to fix this issue?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Is there a replacement YouTube App for the removal of the native YouTube in iOS 6? There is one for the iPhone/iPod but so far nothing for the iPad. Will this be fixed soon?

Just wondering if there is anything coming out soon. Kind of a big missing chunk from the iPad features list in my opinion. Thanks.

The website version is nowhere near as functional as the original app. It can't even go into fullscreen mode. I hope Google will make a decent version of YouTube for the iPad like they did for the iPhone. Third party apps seem to fall short in terms of software fluidity and features right now.

The FireFox Browser loads itself very slowly and makes me wonder if it is loading at all. Is there something that can be done to speed up the FF Browser loading?

FF Browser 5 loads itself very slowly and takes so long with no sign that it is loading that many times I will click it again and later find that it has loaded itself twice.
Is there anything that I can do to speed the start-up of this browser?
It seems that if there is not a way to load this browser faster that FireFox would make an add on that would show us that the Browser is in process of loading at the very least. Thank you for your kindness in any way for help in this regard. Best Regards
Sincerely Walt

Or were you referring to the one in the old temporary replacement device? Would that even be compatible with the newer phones?
The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time. Then the readers of this community can follow the progression of the events better.

I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!! No help link or anything!!?

I don't know if you are still having the issue but if you are have you contacted your ISP? It sounds to me like it's more of a connectivity issue than a browser problem. I've dealt with similar things several times and in both cases it was something with the modem or an ISP setting.
I'm also wondering if it could be a Wi-Fi issue. Can you log in to your router? (It varies by brand but you would go to a site such as http://192.168.10.1. That is for Trendnet. The information for yours should be in the documentation that came with it.)
You should be able to get the router log in page to come up even if you can't connect to any websites. (Provided the network is set up correctly.)
I also would double check your connection settings (if you're connecting over Wi-Fi) or your ethernet connection. (If you're connected directly to the modem and router.)
Hopefully one of these suggestions will be helpful.

The fancybox images on the Recent Images section of the site are loading very slowly. This just started happening with Mozilla 8. Is there a fix?

The images on the fancybox on the bottom of our main page (Recent Images) are loading very slowly. This issue is only on Mozilla 8. When you browse through the images the loading begins from top to bottom.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref network.http.max-connections from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.
