Hallo,

and it gets worse. Playing a YT video (720p) consumes about 300% CPU
power and laptop running hot.

Doing the same with Chromium causes about 30% load, that's an order of
magnitude!

NOTE: this cannot be attributed to Video HW accelleration, I have
enabled that in FF long time ago, following
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1291279/ubuntu-20-10-firefox-82-intel-hd-500-vaapi-hardware-acceleration
 and
https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/enable-hardware-video-acceleration-va-api-for-firefox-in-ubuntu-20-04-18-04-higher/
 .

And it has been working well for months. The obvious reason would be the
FF update.


Seems that you have a lot extensions, did you try to disable some of them?



Basically, this version is garbage.


Thanks for the nice and constructive message.

Cheers
