I switched from Firefox to Chrome around the same time as the author. However, I'm having the opposite experience. Chrome is great; everything is blazing fast, even with my ~25 tabs open.

I tried Firefox a few weeks ago just to see if I had been missing out on anything. Nope. Opening new tabs in Firefox was sluggish. Page navigation was even worse. I assumed that most browsers would be roughly on par these days but Firefox was not even tolerable after having used Chrome.

It pains me because I, too, share the sentiment that Mozilla is committed to freedom and privacy on the internet. I guess I am just willing to give that up in exchange for a better internet experience for the time being.

Try "Reset Firefox" -- it helps lots of problems like this. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fi....
