FF is worse with the latest update 13.0.1. It uses too much RAM, page scrolling is much slower and YouTube vids stall while playing. Is this a paradox?

First, try to reset Firefox. Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings. This simple step will eliminate many Firefox problems with only one click.

Problems with slow scrolling can be caused by smooth scrolling that has been enabled by default in Firefox 13

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General: Browsing: "Use smooth scrolling"
  • Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
  • Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.
