Here, firefox constantly eats CPU and a huge amount of RAM, because I have hundreds tabs. This causes firefox-specific minor and major hangs, and certainly impacts the system response as well (because of CPU/RAM eating). In such conditions, it's quite impossible to distinguish what add-ons and tab content are causing the CPU eating. Closing firefox of course fixes it all. Regards, > On 10/6/19 6:59 AM, George N.
