Public bug reported: Since recently I observe a very annoying behaviour of firefox. Firefox locks for 1-5 seconds whenever I switch tabs, scroll, click on buttons or enter text into forms (in this sentence it happened already a couple of times). This makes working in firefox a nuisance. Opening pages takes longer than in google chrome, albeit firefox used to be significantly faster than chrome. After the inital freeze, sides are loaded quickly though.
