Firefox hangs when trying to save file that already exists
Firefox seems to hang almost indefinitely when you are
- saving a file that already exists.
- While multiple other files are downloading at the same time (around 20 file downloads)
My system is
- Running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Running GNOME on Wayland
- Using Nautilus as the File Manager
After the number of simultaneous downloads reaches around 5, it responds again with a dialog that says that a file with that name already exists.
I am running a Ryzen 9 5950x and the CPU utilization is only at 2% so I am wondering why it needs to hang for so long?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode
While you are in safe mode, see if you still have the problem.
Also; Firefox Options > Advanced > General.
Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
