Hi there, I saw a bunch of people post about slow downs when using Firebug 1.11.x I had the same problem and this is how I solved it
I followed a tutorial somewhere to start a new Profile for Firefox. I created a new profile and tested Firebug, the slow downs disappeared. *Workaround / Fix* It wasn't practical for me to stick with the new/blank Profile so I switched back to my default one with the slow-firebug. I then removed the Firebug addon, restarted Firefox. Deleted the 'firebug' folder from the my profile directory, restarted Firefox. Browsed to about:config and searched for 'firebug'. Then right-clicked each setting and chose 'reset'. When I was done with all the settings I restarted Firefox. After that I reinstalled Firebug 1.12.a7 Now everything is nice and snippy. *Conclusion* I think there are settings in about:config and files in the the profile directory that get's left behind when we upgrade firebug. These settings/files appear to be the cause of the slow-downs. I hope this helps someone, it took me a good while to fix. :) On Wednesday, May 29, 2013 1:41:15 PM UTC+2, Sebastian Zartner wrote: > > I could reproduce the test case of bug > 875797<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875797>using Firefox 21, > though not on 22, 23.0a2 nor on 24.0a1.
