is anyone getting a " stuttering kinda scrolling ?

I don't see this myself. How severe is it for you? Do you have a link to a site where it is very obvious for you? I'll also assume you tried with a new profile.

[veryslow]

Not sure about the performance, but I see flickering on gog.com when highlights at the top are being scrolled. They might have broken something in WebRender.

A previous issue has reappeared for me. The first site that I try to get to takes over 5 seconds to display. After that sites appear quickly. I don't recall what fixed the original issue. It might have been a pref or add-on. However I haven't made any changes to either. Anyone else seeing this slow page loading of your first site?

Are you using DoH?

Are you using DoH?

Yes, it's the default. I disabled it and still have the same problem. As I said I had the same problem a while back and it went away for reasons I do not remember.

I get this also. And, instead of the moving circle of dots to indicate it is loading, it gives a solid sideways hourglass during this long pause. I am not sure if the hourglass and pause are related, or just happen by coincidence.

[streetwolf]

The hourglass thing has already been discussed. It is a feature. Do a search for hourglass in this forum.

My problem is an add-on option. My memory was jogged and now I remember that it was my add-on. It began to work at some point but now it doesn't unless I change the option again. Not a bug deal.
