eBay Slow in 2nd Tab

[leafan1]

Hi there,

Since yesterday at least, opening a second eBay tab slows it down massively.

It opens, and Tab 1 runs fine, but Tab 2 runs so slowly that it's basically unusable.

This only happens on eBay, not with other websites.

I am on Firefox 136.0.1 (64-bit). Let me know if you need more info.

If disabling your ad blocker speeds things up, try disabling just the Anti-Circumvention filter in Ad Block, or the ABP filters in Ad Block Plus, or the equivalent filters in other ad blockers.

Those filters have been associated with search results loading slowly and heavy resource usage in the past.

Thank you, I think you hit the nail on the head with the solution.

I'm not savvy enough to find the features you mentioned, but I just disabled *one* of my ad blockers ('Ad Block') on this website and it seems to have addressed the issue.

Cheers.

You are most welcome -- glad to hear that!

In my version of Ad Block, I can disable just the Anti-Circumvention filters by clicking on the Ad Block icon in my browser address bar, using the gear icon to open settings, choosing Filter Lists and then unchecking the box by the Anti-Circumvention filters line.
