I'd suggest to try debugging _why_ Firefox has become so much slower as per the upgrade. It is unlikely that it is the new Firefox version being slower than the old ones (although it may be possible). What I'd rather guess is that something different changed in the system which now causes it to run slower. What GPU are you using? How is the RAM load during the slow phases? Can you close invidual tabs to stop the slowness i.e. can you make out that the high load is caused by a specific website or a specific type of website. It

What GPU are you using? Device-1: Intel 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics driver: i915 v: kernel Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded: intel unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,vesa resolution: 1366x768~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel 945G v: 1.4 Mesa 20.3.5 Can you close invidual tabs to stop the slowness Almost always no.
Actually, this looks pretty OK to me. I conclude that it is most likely not to be a GPU-related issue, although I do not know what else might be causing the slowness. Others suggested to check the CPU load with `htop`. This might indeed be a good next thing to try?
