Freezeing (no response to GUI commands) in Kubuntu 24.04

After I upgraded my system to Kubuntu 24.04 thunderbird started eating CPU (150+% CPU usage according to htop). Because I couldn't tell if the culprit was the new KDE or the old profile, I tried to create a new profile, blow away the KDE config, etc. I also tried downloading the latest version of thunderbird from the website. Nothing helped.

I was able to replicate this problem using the in-memory, fresh KDE.

To replicate: Create Kubuntu 24.04 install USB. Boot from this USB. When asked to install or try, select "Try Kubuntu".

Start Thunderbird.

When prompted to create an account, select cancel. Go into settings, to the bottom, and select Maildir for file storage. Quit thunderbird, and start it again. Create account (select configure manually, enter the information for imap and smtp host, STARTTLS, detect authentication. My username does not contain an @, if that makes a difference). Select "Re-test"

Try to read mail. You will quickly notice that Thunderbird is consuming > 100% CPU, and UI is non-responsive.

Restarting thunderbird does not help.

netstat -tupane shows one or two connections to my imap server port 143, but wireshark doesn't show any traffic on port 143

Not that I think it matters (since I can't get Thunderbird to start seriously downloading from the server) but I have a big ( >100G) Maildir behind my courier server.

Note that I see this problem both with the version on Kubuntu 24.04 install USB, and the latest version downloaded from the thunderbird website.

I feel rather obtuse asking, but how do I get my Thunderbird addressbook to sync to gmail contacts? I uninstalled Cardbook, because Thunderbird now does CardDav, I treid to create a new CardDav addressbook by opening my addressbook, selecting new addressbook, and going through the steps to give Thunderbird access to my Google account. But,

  no new address appeared in the list of addressbooks, and 
  the option to create a new addressbook is no longer avaiable/showing.

Addressbook is still not syncing. My server settings are IMAP. I still have three address books: All, Personal, and Collected.

I am flumoxed. John

YouTube only on Firefox has terrible stutter/frame pacing issues, most prevalent when watching 4k/60 content. "Stats for nerds" shows a healthy buffer and minimal dropped frames. This issue is not present when watching local videos or on Microsoft Edge. The issue can be alleviated by watching in 1080p60 but stutter/judder is still present. The issue is not resolved no matter what power or performance options I choose in my laptop's settings. Any help is super appreciated, as I really don't want to open Edge every time I need to use YouTube. Thanks!

Slow loading speed for my local uTorrent GUI

I've noticed since a few upgraded of Firefox tat I am having an issue loading my local uTorrent GUI at: https://192.168.0.xxx:36724/gui/index.html. I am currently using 132.0.2 x64 and it eventually loads after 3-4 minutes. There are absolutely zero add-ons at the moment, and it does not matter if it is a portable version or standard installed version. I do not seem to have this issue while using Firefox (latest) ESR portable version.

Is there something I'm missing here? I am not sure if it is the port that's the issue with Firefox, because I have a local website using port 9090 and 8080 without any issues on loading. Also, it is happening with the nightly version of FF as well. All other browsers load quickly.

Kind regards,

Shedrock

Hello, Yesterday, when I turned on my computer, I couldn't use Mozilla browser, it keot asking me to refresh it. This happened with other broswers too and they would all open new window with every search, instead of new tab (despite the option being unchecked). I reinstalled Mozilla and that helped, not just for Mozilla but weirdly enough, Chrome was suddenly fine too? Today I turned my PC on and I'm having the same issue all over again. Please help.
