Hello BLFS Support List
If I use the Firefox menu bar and left click on "file", "edit", "view" or if I
select text from the web page and right click then there is a 1-2 second delay
before the menu pops up and when I "copy" there is a similar delay before it
disappears.
However is I click on the "open menu" icon (looks like three horizontal bars,
to the right of the search window)
This problem has been around for a long time, for me and it is not related to
any particular Firefox version.
I have searched the web and there are numerous reports about this, however
none of the "SOLVED" solutions reported works for me. I have some other
problem in my system.
All other menus are "fast": KDE applications, Libre office etc, etc.

LFS/BLFS SVN "ca 2014"
I use the Nouveau driver on Intel P8Z77 board with Nvidia GTX 670 graphics
card.
I have Firefox-34.0.5 as per BLSF-SVN

$ uname -a
Linux lfs 3.18.1 #2 SMP Sat Dec 20 18:26:02 CET 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Qt: 4.8.5

One obvious test is to use the NVIDIA proprietary driver. I have not tested
that. I prefer to keep Nouveau, but I am open for feedback if that is the
solution.
What do you think?
Have you experienced similar problems?
I have not seen this problem but can suggest a couple of things to
check. Run top in a window and watch the load. Look at
/var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if the Nouveau driver is indeed being used.
Build another browser -- seamonkey, lynx or links, konqueror (a part of
KDE) and see if you get similar behavior.
