I updated my Firefox about a month or so ago for some reason, and now it has a heart attack any time a gif loads at all on a page. Pretty much impossible to scroll through any thread that has 2+ gifs or images. Thinking whatever they did in version 40+ broke some things.

What's the new tab "behaviour"? Haven't really noticed anything different.
You can have your old tabs reopen with you start chrome. Unless you are talking about something else?I was always the first to defend and stick with firefox, but after v28, it got significantly worse. Even after putting up with it, for me also in the end it just became too sluggish to be worth keeping. Ultimately for me, the issue was the program window itself wasn't running at 60fps. It was actually more around 25-30fps no matter what I did. Reinstalling and tweaking settings didn't really seam to do much or just made it worse, and I'm almost positive I had a fresh windows reinstall in there too somewhere and it didn't help it either.
In the end, I just went to chrome. Not having youtube center sucks, multiple processes per tab is lame, and no way to save tabs on exit is awful, but at least the browser is silky smooth 144hz and performs okay otherwise.
Just go to chrome honestly.
Uninstall didn't uninstall. Relaunch and it was same profile and all. It tried to restore last crash. Ffs.
Finally got this hot piece of garbage working again.
That's not official yet. I think it will release in FF46 or something. At least, according to this page.Each tab is now a different process instead of a different thread.
I'll try this, thanks.Those of you that have the problem with gifs, try disabling hardware acceleration. It's in the options under "Advanced".
Don't.Or use Chrome as probably everybody else in this thread will suggest.
All about Chrome to sync bookmarks and Cast tabs to my Chromecast. You mean I can stream Plex to my living room for free? Yes, please!

Firefox has been acting like garbage for a while now. Likes to hang and sometimes even crash when loading gifs in the forum. That never happened before.
Funny, I searched everywhere for people having gif problems (exactly the same for me) and couldn't find a thing... obviously it's not just me. I wonder what the hell they did.
45.0b4 64bit running fine here
but they did change how FF is loading gifs a few months ago and it does indeed freeze for a short moment in threads with many huge ass gifs.
