While it's never been a blazing performer, Firefox in Leap 42.2 is *REALLY* bad. It often takes far too long to load pages, compared to Chromium or Seamonkey. In fact, it's so bad I get very poor performance on speedtest.net, if it even runs at all. I just tried on the Xfinity speedtest site and got these results on Chromium: http://results.speedtest.xfinity.com/result/1457254644.png But the test didn't even run on Firefox.
With the regular speedtest site & Chromium, I get: http://www.speedtest.net/result/5913287179
But with Firefox I get a message box "PAGE ERROR - Error fetching resource".
Firefox is also visibly slower doing other things. Why is it now so much worse than before and other browsers?
Have you tried all the speed-up steps provided by its developers? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-how-make-it-faster -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
