Why is my icon firefox slow green turn?

The icon in the lower bar firefox went slowly green, from left to right, then changed back to grey when it reaches the right side. I never noticed this before and wonder what / if anything happened? Assuming that I have not been invaded by little green men or the fbi or similar, I'm not worried, but I understand...

  • Firefox slows down to a crawl while the sync of bookmarks

    Whenever I add, modify, move, or delete a bookmark, Firefox slows down to a crawl for a few seconds, whereas Sync does its thing. I know that Sync is the question because I added the sync icon to the toolbar and see it light up and spin and Firefox is unusable whenever I have change a bookmark. This is probably because I have a ridiculous number of bookmarks: probably in the range of 10-20 000.

    Despite these problems, Sync did a good job of synchronizing bookmarks between my computer and makes it easier for me to finish my work, so I would like to continue using it. My bookmarks file acts as a search engine mini for the things that I found useful/interesting. deletion of bookmarks or using a very stripped down bookmarks file really does not solve my problem here.

    I already googled until exhaustion, and set services.sync.autoconnect to false in: config, but that didn't seem to do anything. This solution might work but is not very handy: http://superuser.com/a/818726/362951

    Is it possible I can turn off Auto-Sync synchronization after each change bookmark? I'd like to be able to synchronize ONLY when I click the 'Sync' button in my toolbar in FF.

    Sync chooses when synchronize based on a combination of the last hour of synchronization and the amount of change that has occurred. You can actually turn off the synchronization (except you can still manually synchronize) by changing these values.

    1. go into "subject: config.

    2. Enter "services.sync.syncInterval" in the search box. It's the amount of time (in 1/1000 of a second) that synchronize waits between synchronizations. If you want to sync never synchronize after a while, change for something big like '999999999999999999999999 '.

    3. Enter "services.sync.syncThreshold" in the search box. It is the amount of change that must take place between synchronizations. 300 represents a bookmark and is also the default, so by default, sync will sync whenever you add a bookmark. If you want to synchronize only after 2 bookmarks, change it to 600, etc.. If you want to never synchronize, also change it for a very large number.

    Note: there is always a possibility sync may synchronize automatically some time, but it is extremely rare.

  • Firefox slows down - then crashes

  • Firefox slows down for several minutes, as if (possibly), it seems "reoganise".

    Hello!

    Every once in a while, Firefox slows down a lot, the use of the CPU (for Firefox) exceeds to 95pct and there is a lot of drive actuvuty. Then after a minute or so, it starts again to normal.

    What does Firefox do? Is this normal/expected behavior? 'Help' Firefox if it needs to have something cleaned?

    I use Archlinux.

    Thank you

    Some quick ideas (in the order that I would try them):

    • Clear your cache. It is possible that some of your cache files are corrupt and Firefox chokes on them.
    • Try to disable the Flash plugin. My experience with Flash on Linux has been less than stellar, and I would not be surprised if it causes problems. If it turns out that the Flash is the issue, you should try grabbing the newest alpha/beta 10.2 and see if that fixes it.
    • Try to open Firefox in safe mode. Which will disable your extensions and many custom settings.
    • Try to start a new profile (be sure to keep the old). There could be something wrong with your current profile (which contains all user-specific data).

    It will obviously be a pain to test if it happens only once a day or two, but that's all I can think about. Best of luck, it attaches, and with a little luck, someone else will have a more specific patch.

  • 38 Firefox slow to respond or crashes without other options?

    After the latest Firefox 38.0.1, it became unusable. I tried several different suggestions found on the forum and through Google searches, but noting seems to cure my problem.

    I use MSN as my home page and at first thought it was the root cause, but using IE I don't have the issue of the suspension. I tried the resettlement, refreshing, new profile creation, to update all the drivers of video material and others etc. but can't seem to find the key...

    The only thing that seems to relieve symptoms is to use the "noscript" and "adblock more ' Add-ons.

    I added information from troubleshooting below.

    For any help or suggestion is appreciated.

  • Download a file should implement an option to open the file or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else?

    Download a file would normally bring up an option to open the file with the appropriate program or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else? It is very frustrating - sometimes, you want the first opened file so it can be discarded or stored in a different location.

    Find the type of file in the Firefox -> Options -> Applications Panel, open its menu drop-down and select 'ask '. To reset all the actions of download, delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in your Firefox profile folder (or rename the mimeTypes.rdf X if you want to save as a backup). The file will be regenerated with all types of files, restore the default actions.

    For more information, see application Panel - set how Firefox handles different file types and change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file .

  • Firefox slows down when opening a site with animated gifs

    After FF4 update, I find that whenever I try to open a page that has several on this animated gifs, firefox slows down a lot. The CPU usage goes up to 50-75% and all animated gifs are moving really slow.

    It is not only large animated gifs, but it occurs also on the forums that have animated smileys. I never had this problem in FF 3.6 neither another browser (IE, Chrome, Safari). If I start FF4.0 without modules or plugins it does the same thing. Even with a new facility. Does anyone have a solution to his problem? Since I can't use some of my favorite now with FF sites, without my pc slow everything down.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).
