When I start Firefox (Or Librewolf) they start lagging a lot in start but with time they start responding smoothly (in like 3to5 minutes).What could be problem? How to fix that?

Edit : Do not know how but it is working now. Edit2 : Experiencing Same issue again 😞 !!

    I am using Arch Linux on 2gigs ram and core2duo (It used to work well on this some days ago). Arch is rolling release so arch linux 1. Firefox version 126.0. This behavior started a few days ago without any induction which I can notice. I have reinstalled firefox.Removed all extensions.Removed .mozzila directory.Tried gecko browsers(They all behave same way).Tried non-gecko browsers (They work fine). I use real version just tried others to see I face issue there or not.

    Like as I am typing this after 30 minutes of browsing it is smooth but first 3 minutes feels like really slow on any gecko browser.

      2GB ram and a C2D?

      I think we have found the problem…

      A raspberry pi has better specs than that.

      If it has worked fine untill now, there was probably a new update that finally pushed it over the edge.

      Get that computer to an antique dealer or let it rest in peace.

      Even a used first get Ryzen would be faster.

      I am sorry, but that is the reality of computing.
