The leave it as it doesn’t matter attitude, with respect is pretty disappointing. 3) it didn’t happen in 2.9 or 2.8.2 or any other version for myself and I imagine many others so there is a regression issue somewhere. 2) 5 months is a long time and you should be able to resolve this pretty easily. 3) This option will be gone after the Web Extensions migration anyway – so in five months at the latest this issue will “resolve” itself.”ġ) Yes it should be resolved because a process is running that has never been on adblock plus for me before ever, and since I don’t use sync on either Firefox or adblock plus then it is a process eating resources and the app is ram hungry enough as it is. 1) It has been there for ages, so I’m not sure why people are noticing now. I” don’t think that this issue is important enough to be addressed. Firefox 54 is going to be released tomorrow. ![]() This is and has been resolved in Firefox 54. Yes, disabling JavaScript currently breaks Web Extensions – meaning also the Adblock Plus part now responsible for reading and saving data. Thank you, I could reproduce this issue now. This is just a confirmation and FYI to you. I also don’t care about a “Sync Adblock Plus settings” option and don’t know why it shows up and then does not (not just the check box but the entire option). It seems it is there (running?) on its own and I don’t want it in Firefox. Hello Wladimir, As with user GARY, I have never used or started Firefox Sync. I look forward to Mozilla’s fixes but maybe you could explain what’s going on here a bit, and why the sync menu appears and vanishes? When i updated to 2.9.1 the browser became really unresponsive until I rebooted the Mac (new install of Firefox on a clean install of 10.12.5) My iMac is a late 2015 5K with a 1TB SSD and core i7 and 16GB ram and the browser is not as fluid as it was with 2.9 it took a while for the browser yop open as fats as it did as well so something changed that effected performance. I don’t have Firefox sync set up and never have and my issue is the same as abp-user2’s the adblock plus sync keeps appearing and vanishing (its not there at boot of the browser for sure) But I can definitely exclude a worse performance in 2.9.1 than in 2.9, there were not changes that could have caused it. While Mozilla is working on resolving the performance issues, we are considering our options as well – improving here will take some time unfortunately. If you are experiencing data loss on Firefox and are willing to let me debug the issue on your computer (via TeamViewer or a similar desktop sharing tool), please let me know in the comments below. ![]() Some users are reporting similar issues in Firefox, a problem we couldn’t reproduce so far. This has also been resolved in Adblock Plus 2.9.1 ( issue 5279, issue 5285), the original data should show up again now. ![]() ![]() It also wasn’t noticed before release that the new data storage doesn’t work in Thunderbird and SeaMonkey, so these users ended up with filters being reset on each restart. Users who need this functionality can turn it back on by clicking the ABP icon, going into “Options” and checking “Count filter hits.” We will be looking into other ways to improve this, even though the main issue can only be resolved by the Firefox developers. While the performance of reading and saving Adblock Plus filters hasn’t improved yet, we turned off filter hit counts by default in Adblock Plus 2.9.1 as a first consequence to make sure the data no longer needs to be saved that often ( issue 5298). Most importantly, the performance degradation caused by the new data storage turned out more severe than we expected, some users were experiencing regular noticeable browser hangs. Unfortunately, the Adblock Plus 2.9 release didn’t go as smoothly as we hoped for. Adblock Plus and (a little) more Adblock Plus 2.9.1 for Firefox released
