Has anyone else noticed that Firefox runs substantially slower

Its been getting worse every time i update since they adopted chrome's version numbering system. Its almost as slow as chrome now.

Feels faster to me

Maybe it's time to upgrade your Pentium 4 box

I'd fucking get rid of that piece of shit from my ancient laptop if it had more than 2GiB of RAM.
Also install Chromium

>its slower
You fucked up something, it should actually be faster since the multiprocess update was released a few weeks ago.

Uninstall Ghostery and AdBlockPlus, use uBlock Origin. Ghostery is redundant, sells your data and ABP is simply inferior software.

Check hardware acceleration, might change something.

Check in about:support if multiprocess is enabled.
If not, check which extension is causing it to be disabled by disabling them one by one and restarting and checking about:support again.

Once the culprit extension is located, you can wait until it is updated and marked as compatible, or disable it, Or, if you want just override firefox defaults and enable multiprocess anyway with your current extensions under your responsibility.
Check the electrolysis wiki for instructions.

Once it is enabled, then increase process count to 4 in about:config if it is not already set to that value. Then realize it is actually faster than Chrome.
