is anyone experiencing slowness with AWS web console and the latest release?

I have pages constantly stopping or hanging. I've restarted the browser and restarted the computer (a fairly new Mac with 24GB of RAM and 1GB internet) and still have the slowness.  Other browsers (which I prefer not to use) do not have this issue.  

Curious if anyone else is experiencing this.

Yea, I switched to Chrome for all the AWS stuff in the meantime.  I run MacOS 15.6.1 with 24GB of RAM.  FF 145.0 after the last upgrade.  Will try the latest update, but this is unusable with AWS web console.

Same issue here! AWS console freezes after a few minutes, no matter the amount of tabs opened.

I'm mainly using firefox for aws and the multi account containers extension when managing lots of different tenant.

Same here, I am using multi account containers (which is why I am using Firefox, because I need that extension, it's much better than the AWS console native account switching).
The same thing is happening for me. if I do not use the console for a  while, the tab freezes up. Other tabs are fine. Refresh on the page does not work, it does not even give the visual  feedback to show that refresh has been clicked. F5 has no effect. Same for the links in the page.
The workaround I found, is to copy the URL and duplicate or open a fresh tab. Sometimes you have to do this two or three times until you get a working tab again. 
Definitely an AWS console thing, though. All other tabs and sites are 100% fine.I suspect it is a bug in the security code that kicks in when your AWS session expires, kicking in to early. But this is a guess.

Same issue here - 145.0.2 (64-bit), Windows 11

The AWS web console, regardless of the specific service, frequently freezes and causes my laptop fans to spin up heavily.

In case of any requirement, feel free to get in touch.

It's freezing everything. The worse of their 'updates' and I though the previous ones since past one year forward were terrible. How can they never get it right??

Since this seems to be a widespread issue, what is the correct way to report this? AWS Support? Mozilla? 

I think it's definitely a FF issue with AWS.  I thought this was the way to report a potential issue. It shouldn't take too much to reproduce and I suspect a HAR file could help diagnose.  I'm wary of sending that over the wire though.
