Firefox hang on any webpage

[maherma]

After firefox update, all websites hang firefox with 100% usage of CPU.

Disabling NoScript restore firefox usability.

firefox version: 48.0a2 (2016-04-29)

Any sugerence to solve it?

Probably,

I'm using aurora channel not nigthly, but symptoms are the same.

Every tab hang for 20sg or more, unfreeze for a second and froze again.

I test disabling all plugins except NoScript and problem persist.

e10 enable/disable don't solve the problem.

Firefox Developer edition was working fine with Firefox Developer Edition, until I installed the update to 48a2 that was released todasy. Now, if NoScript is enabled, Firefix will freeze if it tries to load a page, even the built-in start page. Strangely, this affects my Mac OS 10.11.4 system but cannot reproduce this problem in Windows 10.

2016-04-30 or 2016-04-29?
(Is this same issue as viewtopic.php?f=7&t=21870 ? EDIT yes. merged, see below)

[seanthegeek]

the 29th worked fine. The 30th seems to have broke something.

[seanthegeek]

Yes. This is the same issue. It's possible I was using a build older than the 29th without knowing it.

Just wanted to confirm this here, FF 48.0a2 with Noscript makes FF really slow. Kind of 20-30seconds delay before each page

@seanthegeek: Thanks

Merged two threads on this issue.

Hi! Got the same problem described here. Problem is: I don't get the solution (if any is presented..)
As far as I can see, the plug-in container goes up to 3gb of memory usage, shown in task manager. no problems with noscript disabled. got the firefox 48.0a2 (64bit developer edition on aurora channel).
help needed as I feel a little naked without my beloved script blocker..
best regards..

We don't know what the solution is but it's likely a Fx/Gecko change that needs to happen: viewtopic.php?p=82832#p82832

It was apparently a Firefox GC bug, fixed in Nightly.

From https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.c ... 058542#c75:

I am surprised nobody answered your question earlier. NoScript performance has already been fixed in Nightly, take a look at the comments in this bug for more details:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1264896
However, this bug hasn't been uplifted to Firefox Dev Edition 48 so now I see two options:
1. Wait for Firefox Dev Edition 49 release that will contain all the latest Nightly 49 bugfixes including the one that fixed NoScript performance
2. Switch to Nightly
