Browsing facebook is very slow.

Post by D.Dancer »

Browsing facebook is exceeding slow, and especially if I go to reply to a post it takes forever to become interactive with me.

Other sites and everything is zippy even if the site happens to be heavy in images and scripting.

So realizing this is something facebook, can someone give me some clues where to look?

Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Troubleshooting Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

Pretty much, it's like firefox is attempting to download everything every time I visit facebook because the hard drive is trashing in the background without me browsing anywhere.

You can check for memory issues in case Windows is using the page file.
