Here's a screen capture I took of what's been happening over the last couple of minutes. I restarted my browser and tried again, but encountering actually worse. I've got nothing else running on my PC right now.

Switched to Chrome, fixed the issue for now.

In all likelihood it was Firefox's memory manager shitting itself. I recently permanently switched to Chrome for the same reason. Firefox gets worse every day.

Well sort of on-topic then, yesterday while grinding, two or three times my screen went dark, came back on (with some of the graphics not redrawn), and I got a windows message about the nVidia driver failing. Then Firefox crashed shortly thereafter. I just got a new GPU (it's for my secondary rig), so it's probably a H/W or compatibility thing, but I will try it in Chrome to see if it still happens.

I couldn't even run NG with my old video card, and it makes my (4-year-old work) laptop fan itself like it's running a marathon.

Anyway, the good news is that I was happy to see how much of my status it saved considering I didn't zone or camp or anything.

If you're not using Chrome, you're doing it wrong. I was in denial for years, but there's no serious alternative.

Don't get me wrong I use Chrome for work purposes, but I really do enjoy the features and I'm more used to how Firefox is laid out. Interestingly enough when I was running into the issue yesterday I opened up the console to see I was getting ping times of 1-2,000 which was the reason for the slow down. When I got stunned, or after the battle ended it returned to a more normal ping state.

For the time being I'll use Chrome to play Nevergrind, but hopefully I can get Firefox fixed in the future as well.

Typically closing and reopening the browser fixes Firefox memory problems.

She's a crafty one, that Firefox. One day I'll catch her and the fame and glory will be mine. Yarr
