Thank you all for your responses.

I've had hiccups like that on several versions of Firefox before. It turns 
out, ESR is my problem.

So can you have a closer look at the plugins you use?

   - Danielo's footNote add-on
   - Highlight.js plugin
   - A single filter in $:/core/macros/timeline
   - No changes to View and EditTemplates

Input Font, embedded base64 encode stylesheet, 115KB

I've tried these. It does not improve the performance.

Load time is good. Search time is excellent. This is primarily an issue 
editing a large tiddler. Opening and saving the large tiddler has a bit of 
a pause, but typing in the editor has a ~3 second delay. That much delay 
makes takes me out of my writing flowstate.

Just for the record, what platform, OS, and hardware are we talking about?

For the record: E3 Xeon, 16GB RAM, 750Ti, Ubuntu 16.04, Firefox ESR, 10MB 
wiki. 

So, I grabbed Chromium, and I have zero performance problems on it. Damnit!

The only reason I'm using ESR is because I love some of my extensions, 
including Tiddlyfox. I can't escape the Firefox Apocalypse. =( I guess I'll 
be moving to Quantum w/savetiddlers + syncing/linking the updated wiki file 
to the directory it belongs. Anyone have a sync or linking method that they 
love for this?
