How To Boost Your Firefox's Performance

1. Cache memory management

Firefox’s cache is designed to speed up your web browsing by storing certain files locally rather than having to fetch them every time. However, there’s a balance to be struck—if the cache gets too big then it can start causing problems and affect performance. Fortunately, Firefox includes some clever cache management options. Choose Options from the Firefox menu, then click Advanced and Network. Here you can clear the cache (only do this occasionally) and decrease its size by ticking the Override automatic cache management box.

2. Refresh Firefox

Firefox has a built-in refresh feature that resets most of the browser’s settings without affecting any of your personal data, such as bookmarks, passwords, browsing history, cookies, and so on. It can often solve problems with sluggishness and the feature is handy for troubleshooting other issues as well. Type “about:support” into the address bar in Firefox and then click the Refresh Firefox button to see if it makes a difference.

3. Remove most of add-ons

Dozens of redundant extensions and plug-ins can slow down Firefox. Getting rid of them not only means the browser becomes a leaner beast, it also improves browser security. Choose Add-ons from the Firefox menu to disable both extensions and plug-ins. Plug-ins can only be deactivated, whereas you can either disable or remove extensions.

4. Install these two extensions

Yes, we just told you to uninstall most of your extensions, but some of them are genuinely useful. Take Auto Unload Tab, for example, which will ditch inactive tabs after a delay of your choice to free up memory and CPU resources. It’s pretty customizable too and you can specify particular tabs and URLs that you never want to be ‘unloaded.’ Then there’s Speed Tweaks—this extension gives you easy access to all those hidden Firefox flags that can speed up performance.
