Animation on tab and responsiveness of page load

I was a long time Firefox user but a year go started using Chrome. I went back to Firefox Quantum as my main browser and am impressed with the speed improvement and responsiveness over prior versions. However I noticed at time that the animation on the tab as content is loading is annoying and perhaps causes an inordinate amount of time before the content appears. Is there anyway to stop the back and forth dots?

See this thread for a userChrome.css solution to replace the dots with the previously used rotting throbber.
