Palemoon freezes when using Sync

Post by sdrocking » 2011-08-29, 17:53

When I have sync set up and Palemoon does a sync, it freezes for a few seconds everyone (but thankfully doesn't crash). Disabling sync makes Palemoon much faster. Is anyone else seeing this?

I'm not having that issue, but then again I run Pale Moon on quad core machines. No freezes at all, though.
Does it happen with Firefox? Also, what addons do you have installed?

It doesn't happen on Firefox 7/8/9. I don't have many addons installed. Without Sync, Palemoon 6 is very good.

You shouldn't compare Pale Moon 6 with Firefox 7/8/9 dev versions. If you want to compare to Firefox and see if it happens there, compare it to Firefox 6 - otherwise there's no telling if it's a Pale Moon specific issue you are encountering, or if it's something with the underlying Firefox code.

Better still. I uninstalled Palemoon and started using Firefox 8 Aurora. Maybe, it's time to be on the bleeding edge, with no stupid issues.

Well, I guess that explains your sudden jab at the status bar option then :) Enjoy your more minimalistic and slower web experience!
