I wish it wasn't true, but Firefox seems heavier on low-spec Linux laptops. A while back I was writing code on the road on a $200 HP Stream running Ubuntu, and I needed multiple tabs open with audio to debug. Switching from Firefox to Chrome was a noticeable improvement, where the UI remained responsive in all the tabs.

- doublement 7y agoGive it a try! Specifically I was using WebRTC audio in both Firefox and Chrome, with 2-3 tabs open, and Visual Studio Code open separately.
