Hi, please do it as you're using macOS! So we can compare our experience.
If you use Time Machine you can go back to the previous profile, or just compress the current profile (it's inside /Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/SeaMonkey/Profiles/xxx.default) and then if it's not working you just decompress it and go back.

I'm using 2.53 since a few monts and I have an odd problem affecting the GPU or something that after a certain period of time makes the screen "flashing" just like the video was broken and I need to shut off the Mac and restart. This is happening more often if I use the Mail and News section of SeaMonkey; I also noticed it happens less if I go in off-line several times a day. Very weird!

So I'd appreciate if you could try SM 2.53 on your Mac and tell me if it's working fine.
NB: my sessionstore.json file is now about 18MB (it was up to 40 before).


I have a spare Mac that I use for testing -- it's an older machine that won't upgrade past High Sierra. I just threw SM 2.53 (Bill's 9/15 release) on there. I haven't made a systematic test, but I'm finding that with a number of media sites that are scripting-heavy, I'm getting pretty sluggish performance, and lots of "spinning beach ball" wait cursors. Although I normally am an enthusiastic user of extensions, this particular profile is almost entirely tweaked, other than changing the default search engine.

As a point of comparison, I have Firefox 69.0 on the same machine, that has several extensions (especially NoScript and AdBlock Plus), and that one performs at a level I pretty much expect.

Since this is not a working machine, I can do lots of testing without disrupting any active profiles.
