Does anyone have advice on how to set up firefox so it runs faster on older/slower computers?
I recently got this laptop for cheap and it's pretty good, but firefox is noticeably laggy on it.

I searched google for a bit but the results are polluted with shitty clickbait articles completely devoid of useful information.

I did find something about optimising firefox for SSDs which involved changing browser.sessionstore.interval to a higher value, which I've done, and I also changed other options like max_tabs_undo to much lower values. What else can I do?

I already have netsurf installed which I use for most sites, but it's pretty limited so I still need firefox sometimes. For example, to post on 4chan. That doesn't seem to be possible from netsurf.

Oh actually it seems you can post from netsurf. It's a little difficult because the tickboxes for the captcha are hidden behind the images in the bottom right corner, took some trial and error to work it out.

Still I'm interested in any ways to make firefox faster/more responsive on limited hardware, without installing an older version. If anyone can help, let me know.
