I'm going to validate this in 24-hours unless someone beats me to it.

No problems with these updates on x86_64, mga5 and mga6.

Keeping an eye open for the minute-long lockups which used to happen quite frequently near the start of a user session.  So far so good.

I don't know if what you are describing is the same but, for me, firefox freezes for 20 to 30 seconds a few seconds after it starts, with 150% core usage, and then continues normally. This only happen on my main profile (a profile with a bunch of add ons, large history, etc). On a clean profile these freezes do not happen or are too short to be noticeable.

These freezes have been happening since several version happen with version 52.3 and also happen with version 56.0b2 that I'm using to post this.

Try changing DNS server(s):

I'm not so sure this is an issue with Mageia. This is a security update and, IMO, trying to get Mozilla to change something upstream is like shouting down an empty well. Note my Comment 16. I find that Firefox is susceptible to slow DNS servers and exhibit the performance issue you describe here.

Comment 20 Len Lawrence 2017-08-14 10:26:34 CEST
Re comment 15.
In the case here there is only one profile.  The freezes seemed to last precisely one minute and occurred shortly after session startup without any user interaction but vanished after a while.  Not seen yet with this update.  But as wilcal says it is hard to see how a security update could fix this issue.  It may well have something to do with the user profile so a bit of a nightmare to track down.

Firefox connects OK,no blockages. Video from newspaper site plays OK.

M5_64

I started testing this yetserday, but got stuck with a problem on a particular site - which was evident with other browsers - so could not OK it then. Today I can: the problem has gone, and all my usage of the updated Firefox was good.
So a retrospective OK.
