Chrome gmail delays on Linux fixed by running Firefox?

[eisvogel]

My gmail was freezing up with dismissed ads and other functionality in Chrome running on Ubuntu Linux. I switched to Firefox, and now it works great. Clearly there is support in Chrome for gmail that is affecting performance on Linux. As anyone had a similar experience?

Mine is paid as well, but still hangs in Chrome on Ubuntu. i should look into bug reporting with Google ...

Nope, but then I use paid Gmail. Just got the scheduled send today!
