Scrolling Too fast

Hi, the scrolling speed of all the web pages in Firefox is too fast. With other browsers there's no issue. I'm using the device "Micromax A177". It runs on jelly bean. And it's not rooted, if that info is required. I love to use Firefox on my mobile. But this issue is bothering me so much.

Thanks in advance. P.S. by too fast I mean just by a single swipe I will reach the end of the web page which usually takes not less than 5 to 7 swipes on chrome

hi Dinesh013, i guess that's a bit of a matter of preference - some people might prefer to be able to scroll through a page with a single gesture. however the speed of scrolling should be adaptive of the speed of your swiping gesture...

Thanks for the reply. But my problem is I don't want to scroll the page too fast. And with slightest swipe I'm reaching the end of the page. With same level of swiping in other browser I don't have this problem. I read a lot of articles on the web. So a very sensitive scrolling page will be a big headache( as it will reach end of page every time I want to go to next para). I find this problem as a unique one in Firefox. I tried many other browsers. None has such problem. But I want to use Firefox because of its plugins support and stability.The speed of swiping and speed of the page scrolling is not in sync.
