Okay, earlier today I got a little prompt to upgrade firefox and I was like "why not" after looking at all the new stuff.
So I updated.
And was watching Youtube.
Then... I started Mabinogi up.
And Mabinogi plays FINE. Normal as always.
But then i went to choose another youtube video to listen to...
Firefox was so unresponsive.
Scrolling lagged so bad it moved about 10 seconds after i scrolled.
Clicks took just as long to register.
And it was only like that when Mabinogi was running.
After I closed Mabi it ran well again.
I'm just not sure what causes it, and even though I like Firefox 4's new look and features, I've downgraded back to 3.6.bluh.
I'd like to have all those features, but not if I can't have it run while Mabi's up.

I only saw a hint of the problem somewhere, but I'll ask you.
Do you have the AdBlock Plus add-on?

I have the same problem. The problem does go away when you play in full screen though. Painful I know, but it works. Just Alt+Tab to firefox and it's suddenly a speed demon.

At the moment, 3.6 is faster on some computers than 4, so was probably a good idea to downgrade.
For me, it doesn't. I think the problem was FF4 trying to take more video memory than it can chew, since FF4 allocates more resources to running Flash and graphical stuff.

Iya, you are mage. You have 600+ intelligence, no?
Since you do, why are you using Firefox, and not Google Chrome?

Oh I got the same issue, googled up my problem and found a solution.

I personally agree with Pride here. I use Chrome for EVERYTHING except testing cross-browser compatibility which is essential in the line of web design work, which includes having to work with that curse of a browser known as IE that continues to plague the internet including IE6!
/end cross-browser rant
Chrome is my favorite of them all. Firefox is decent but I don't use it anymore. Firefox 3.6 though does allow to download mp3's from youtube :thief:

Is that why new versions of IE and Firefox both copied Chrome? <3
I kid.
Mostly!
I started using Chrome when Firefox lost the reason I was attached to it in the first place. It used to be less cluttered, felt like it ran smoother (not that it's hard to do compared to IE XD).
