Update to Firefox ESR 140.13.0 W11 very bad performance, downgraded. (Edit .13 not .0.13)

Making moves

This is my first post, so apologies if this should be notified elsewhere, but it was bad enough that I thought I should mention it somewhere.

Two days ago I allowed the update to 140.13.0esr, from 140.12.0esr, (en-GB edition).
On Windows 11 25H2 updated.
I then noticed a number of things were generally less responsive, it was as if FF was waiting 0.5-2 seconds before actually taking effect. From selecting another tab, menu selection, typing, pages responding (controls on a page etc), slow loads. 
I do have VERY MANY windows & tabs, initially I though I had hit some limit, so close a good number, no difference. 
Restarted.
Blamed some sited I had not visited before.
Looked at Process Manager [where I'm no expert) (some of the above sites were high CPU for many seconds),
Unfortunately I did not keep the results, but there were plenty of Red & Black lines at the top, and a LOT of GC.

It was so bad I had to downgrade, and it is back to normal.

There is something seriously wrong with 140.13.0
This is not a specific bug, so I didn't think Bugzilla was appropriate.

 
Edit oops fixed 140.13/12 not 140.0.nn Dyslectic.
