Devices effected: All that I have tried (Samsung Glaxy s3, LG G3, Nexus 7 2013)

On any website, when scrolling there is a VERY annoying lag, and makes using Firefox feel extremely slow. Take any website eg: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox


I am forced to use Chrome due to this issue (and another issue for which I'll ask another question)

Hi Haider180,

These are some preferences in the about:config url page built into Firefox for Android you can customize: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fenne.../Android#Tweaking_UI_prefs The defaults are not perfect for each device but a fair assessment.
