Facebook is so slow on Firefox
Hey every time i go to Facebook it keeps going super slow and continues to display the prompt bar where it says this page is slowing your browser down. to speed up your browser stop this page.... well its every single page. and this is happening to me on a couple of computers. I have cleared cache and cookies. I've turned off enhanced tracking. I've also tried opening in a private window and still the same thing.

Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?
Yes unfortunately!
I'm honestly so frustrated by it that I've had to start using Chrome to access it. I don't have the problem on that browser at all.
Does it still happen in a new profile? An easy way to test a new profile is to install Developer Edition and see if it happens there or refresh your existing profile.
Ok so did the refresh but it still shows that slowing down Firefox prompt. I see that prompt in messenger on news feed. opening groups, pages all inside of one tab. In other words I don't have other tabs or windows open.
The other thing is it takes like 3 seconds to show that I can click any of the buttons inside of Facebook such as home screen, a page etc.. Like there is a delay. If I type something it has a delay as well. I dont have these issues on chrome otherwise if I did the I would suspect it would be the computer itself. I'm still gonna do a full scan of my computer for malware etc here in a minute. I will also try the new profile thing here soon.
So I know much about developer stuff honestly. It is happening the developer edition as well. When I click debug script in developer browser it displays 5 errors and 4 warnings. Don't know if its any of these or something else.
