Firefox issue after enable multi core support


Recommended Posts

I'm using version of 49.0.1and after some tweaking got multi-core support enabled, but now I can not seem to copy/paste (randomly per site) and my add-on Clipe which allows me to store multiple items on the clipboard will not paste anything except the latest entry. I am also having issue when I search via Google (or other search engine) when I click on t he link nothing  happens, I have to right click- open in new tab in order to get it to work. These issues did not start until I enabled the multi-core support. Should I go ahead and disable it and see if the issue(s) are resolved?

You mean multi-process (aka e10s), right?

Multicore support is not enabled by default :huh::wacko:

All add ons have to be compatible. I just read yesterday that it is best not to force it in Fx 49.0.1. It will work better with Firefox's Beta fx 50 B6.

Force Enable

If you've tried enabling e10s following the instruction above, but your about:support indicates that e10s is disabled (e.g., accessibility, add-ons can trigger this), you can force e10s on for testing purposes. Within about:config create a new boolean pref named browser.tabs.remote.force-enable and set it to true. This is not encouraged, use it at your own risk!

That's... a lot of extensions. Have you tried disabling them all and seeing if the issue still exists? If the issue doesn't persist after disabling all extensions you'll know it's one of them causing it. You can then try enabling them one-by-one (restarting Firefox each time you enable an extension and retesting) and retesting for the issue until you come upon the culprit.

 

Personally, I keep both my Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, etc. light with the bare minimum of extensions and I never encounter browser issues like crashes and copying and pasting not working.

Only 4 of my add-ons are e10 compatible. :( Guess I'll undo what I did to force it, since it's not acting right.

That is unfortunate. I only run a few add-ons and can get by without them if need be, so e10s are a welcomed addition. I remember when e10s were first introduced into the nightly builds many moons ago, those were some buggy times until extensions started to update their code. I just periodically check that website to see if any new extensions pop up or any updates, i do have one or two that are not compatible that i would still like to use.

    • Apple prices for sure suck, but performance, upgradability and flexibility are subjective to the use case and machine. For example, you will not find a mini PC in the same starting price range that has the same performance as a Mac Mini, nor will it be very upgradable, if at all at that size. Many cost-effective laptops are not upgradable past the storage. Inexpensive laptops are underperforming in comparison to more expensive models that might actually cost more than a MacBook . You won’t find battery life is comparable unless you go with Snapdragon, which limits compatibility and sacrifices upgradability. AIOs suck in both spaces, so I’ll not mention them. As for flexibility, I can do more in my use cases with a Mac than I can with a Windows or Linux machine. Where Apple really screws their users over is with upgrades, especially since you have to do them during purchase. Outside of cost, it’s all subjective.
    • Not with Proton, no. macOS isn’t Linux in any way, shape, or form.
    • AIDA64 was just showing the variable speed. Open Task Manager and go on the CPU tab and see the magic of your CPU speed going up and down as the PC does things in the background. C States Auto/Disabled actually forces all cores on (disabling the ability to park unneeded 3D Cache cores when they aren't needed), but does not have any effect on the CPU speed. I think setting the Power Plan in Windows to High Performance does boost the CPU clock higher, which also results in less energy efficiency with "everything turned up to 11" all the time when it isn't even needed. Older generation CPUs did not have the variable speeds we now have in modern CPUs, they operated on a fixed clock speed.
    • one drive saved my life .ive freed up some space i now have 227gigs.
    • "What the f is that name of that program?! Good thing I can find it in the easily accessible, and alphabetized list of apps." 🙂 I don't use the Start Menu a lot, but I'd be super annoyed if there wasn't some form of an app drawer in Windows.
