When i watch videos, from any website (youtube, facebook, etc...), they all stutter every 10 seconds or so. Just the video stutters, the audio works fine and the video catches up with the audio. Also, while im typing, the response stutters as well. The letters will show up as I am typing, but then pause while i keep typing, then catch up. Scrolling stutters as well. I have no add-ons other than the required flash player, java, etc... and they are all up to date. I unchecked the hardware accelerator box in options as well. FF is the only program that causes these. My wifes computer does the stuttering on videos too. Its really annoying to her because she watches a lot of her shows online. Its not our internet. We have a 200M fiber optic line and like i said, this only occurs in FF.

A possible cause is some interference with Firefox creating a new sessionstore.js file to store session data.

You can check the Firefox profile folder for the presence of numbered sessionstore-##.js

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

You can also try to increase the browser.sessionstore.interval pref on the about:config page.

How do you turn off session store? browser.sessionstore.enabled is not an option in my config. I dont care to have it on. I would rather my videos played correctly than worry about restoring a browsing session from some random incident. I would rather FF create a stable platform where you dont have to jerry rig it in order to even use it.
