Hi after about 10 minutes browsing fire fox soft scroll starts stuttering.

If I close and reopen after a few seconds all is good.

Any help is welcome.

I have tried so far:

1. Disable hardware acceleration.

2. reinstalled fire fox.

3. Started fire fox in safe mode.

4. Uninstalled Add-ons

5. Font size

6. Changed cache size.

The list goes on.
 
honestly the only suggestion I have is to change from firefox.

I'm an avid firefox fan (add ons) and used it as my main browser until they screwed up the UI however it was getting harder and harder to recommend it due to it just having loads of little underlying 'bugs' like scroll etc. I'd go as far as say ie11 is actually better than firefox now if you exclude things like addons

You could try a new profile but I'd just get a different browser, palemoon would be my suggestion, it's based off firefox so all the plugins work.

OK cheers buddy will give palemoon ago.
 
Could be a memory leak, used to happen on my old pc, Firefox would bloat up to 3gb+ on a 4gb ram machine. Had no choice but to restart the browser.

There was an addon called Mem Restart that helped a tiny bit :/

This is the problem for me I now use the addon and it works very well thank you, also I changed my profile which helps firefox last a little longer.

I tried palemoon but just did not feel as smooth.
