Am I the only one whose system chugs on this forum?

Try a different browser, ive also had performance issues with firefox on sites with scripts since they put scripts in a different process (plugin-container.exe)
Those sites usually go lightning fast when i open them in opera.

I migrated from Firefox to Google Chrome (Chromium on Linux), which I find faster.

^^ +1 for Chrome! I'm using Chrome on OSX.

Interestingly, I also sometimes have Terra bog down Firefox (ie: ramp up or max-out processor usage). In fact, just before I opened this thread, I had to kill the tab Terra was on and open a new one (I was attempting to exit eou's religious request thread). Typically, killing the tab or shutting off FF fixes the issue - so I'm guessing the problem is on my end...

I use Firefox on Linux, I noticed that chromium eats more processor time than firefox. I have found that a combination of Firefox and noscript is the best solution for many overloaded sites. Just yesterday I was browsing TF on a netbook with Ubuntu netbook remix and bunch of windows with multiple tabs open, and had no problems

I'm using firefox on windows 7, never had a problem with TF. Also I usually have 6+ tabs open.

I've never looked at processor usage on Ubuntu while running browsers. My wife has an old EeePC, running Ubuntu Netbook and Firefox and she was always commenting on how slow the internet was and how it wouldn't work with here favourite Facebook games, so I installed Chromium and asked her to try it for a few days. She is now happy with the speed and all her Facebook games work... so I'm happy

Ok, after much testing of stuff, it's apparently Firefox itself. Installed and ran noscript FF addon and it did no good despite having it block darn near everything. I've always used adblock and it made no diff whether on or off. This site just ran like crap no matter what, whether using just one window or one window with multiple tabs, etc. MSE detected no problems. Ad aware found nothing. Hijack this, nothing. So my computer seems fine (2 gigs ram, win x (with recent hd wipes and reinstalls), laptop similar).

So, I tried out Chrome. Yep..runs just fine on this site now. What's strange is it was only this specific site. No other site gave FF problems, but Chrome is very quick with no hangups whatsoever.
