Ah, I found it.. Apparently it is the changing of Firefox to a new process when each tab runs as its own process.. And for some reason BGA/Ark Nova takes a long time to load to the process.... I wish I could fix this. It's so frustrating that I can't just keep the game/tab active in memory all the t...

When I play BGA, particularly Ark Nova, I do my turn, and then I go open another tab to read social media, etc, and I come back, and I get this loading screen for 5-10 seconds. It's really annoying. I am wondering whether it is specific to BGA's implementation or not. It's a black screen with a grey...

Hello. Just wanted to post an update here. The problem kept coming back, and I believe I've finally fixed it for good. (Re-installing Firefox would have fixed it, but I didn't want to do that.) .. I noticed my disk cache was 1GB, so I cleared the cache from Firefox settings, and also disabled disk c...

I still didn't try a fresh install.. But I thought about it a bit. After I disabled "browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory", the situation was happening much less often, but still would unload the tab after a while. So I decided to look for other unload settings. I found "browser.tabs.min_in...

If you have (for example) 40 tabs open or something, that could be causing issues. A good test case would be a clean install and/or different Windows 10 system, using just 1 tab to play a game or two. If it still happens, you know it is not tab-related. Yeah, I have about 12 pinned tabs, and 3 non-...

Yeah, at first, I thought it was noscript, but the problem came back (since it's intermittent, it's a bit hard to confirm). So I deleted that comment since it would be confusing.. (but I guess it was still confusing, my bad). I did disable hardware acceleration, and that has helped in other ways, bu...

I tried disabling all my extensions.. Didn't fix it.

I tried turning off the setting "browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory" in about.config .. Still hasn't fixed it, though it seems to be happening less.. so maybe that is part of it.

It's Windows 10. Firefox is using about 1.5-2GB, and I have 24GB of RAM in my system. The Firefox install isn't fresh, and I imported all my data from Chrome. If I have to, I can reinstall Firefox, I guess. I was just hoping it was more easily explained by a setting. I have several extensions, so I'...

I recently switched to Firefox from Chrome, and I regularly have a turn-based Ark Nova game going. After I come back to the tab when my opponent plays a game, all the images are missing, and it takes a minute for the tab to refresh. It always works correctly after refreshing (manually or automatical...

Thanks. I appreciate the workaround suggestions.
