Facebook is very slow on firefox (specially just after opening the page)
Whenever I open facebook on firefox it freezes for about 2 minutes then it works just fine and after a while it freezes for another couple of minutes and so on .. It seems like it's loading very heavily while it freezes .. I've disabled many addons and still no improvement.
Thanks

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
- Open Firefox Options window (Preferences on Mac or Linux) as follows:
- In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button and select Options for Windows or Preferences on Mac or Linux.
- In Firefox 28.0 and previous versions, click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
- In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the Advanced tab, then select General.
- In the settings list, you should find the Use hardware acceleration when available checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
- Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried your solution but it didn't work.
But when I disabled AdBlocker addon it worked just fine.
I contacted the developer and I'm waiting for a reply
Thanks again
