Sigh. I really don't want to put in an official bug report for it but the #1 reason I don't exclusively use Firefox is a bug involving some porn sites I occasionally visit. No clue why, but Chrome (and its variants) load the sites in a second or two and Firefox will take 3+ mins to load them. Haven't seen that behavior anywhere else but those sites.
I was having issues with Firefox loading pages too. Turned out to be the NoScript extension. Might want to check if you have that installed and if so, try toggling it off and see if that helps.
It only happens in Private Browsing mode so fewer extensions are turned on. Does that mode somehow alter scripting function?
Not that I'm personally aware of, but I don't know for certain. As far as I'm aware, private browsing simply discards all data when you terminate the session.
So Chrome prematurely ejaculates?
