How can I reconfigure the network connection on my Firefox Browser to improve performance?

Thanks

You have many add-ons. It looks like some of them do the same job.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
