Facebook Container Extension causing serious lagging

Hey all, just wanted to put it out here that recently (maybe 3 or 4 days, so ~Nov 1, 2024) I noticed that Facebook was really dragging; the feed would take a second to load posts as I scrolled, clicking on photos or advancing through an album would require a 1 -2 second delay before advancing/loading the photo, Reels were slow to load. And when I would type a reply or comment it was easily 1 - 2 words behind. No similar behavior on other sites - works as it should. Only on FB.

Cleared cache/history, quit and reloaded, no change.

Disabled extensions ( I run two: Ad Blocker Plus and Container), and restarted. Worked great in FB. Reloaded Ad Block, still worked great. Reloaded Container and it started lagging again.

So, maybe Facebook Container is due for an update?

My set up: Apple MPB M1 Pro (2021), Ventura 13.3.1, Firefox 132

Thanks.
