Package: iceweasel
Version: 44.0-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Upgrading to iceweasel 44.0-1 from 43.0.4-1.
I normally run iceweasel without several hundred tabs open and although CPU
and RAM use seemed similar between the versions (around 50 percent CPU when
relatively idle and 1.2 GiB RAM resident on an 8 GiB RAM system), page
loads and refreshing appears very sluggish by comparison.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Downgraded iceweasel to 43.0.4-1.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Page loading and refreshing no longer sluggish.
* What outcome did you expect instead?

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
