Hi,
I have same experience with Firefox, fortunately we can use browser of choice in my work (ex.Chrome). Generally speaking FF have problem with large pages.
My specs are: i5-3320M and 16gb of ram, with ssd so it's not beast but definitely enough for me.
The version of Firefox that I'm using is : `firefox --version` Mozilla Firefox 45.5.0
Example of pages what can even crash Firefox: https://git.centos.org/repositories/
After some loading there is irresponsible button from gnome (I click wait and wait even more) then when Firefox starts to be responding there is FF information about not responding script.
"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the script continue.
Script: https://git.centos.org/bootstrap/js/jquery.js:2"
Other page that is very good for testing is page with lots of packags (repo page) ex: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/ Chrome loads page piece by piece then FF is unresponsive for some quite a long time.
Have anyone tried with newer Firefox? I can investigate it further but there is zero/(meteorite hitting earth in next 5 minutes) chance that it will change the version of FF in RHEL :))
Regards
Alex
TL;DR - It's quite possible that it's problem with FF, because Chrome works fine.

Hi,
As default we use CentOS and firefox. Browsing git.centos.org is horrible. On machines I have the browser dies until it loads what I see as not needed content.
The site is listing dups of repos with different paths. E.G.
https://git.centos.org/summary/!!!!!rpms!git https://git.centos.org/summary/!!!!!rpms!git.git
The whole experience is horrid for devs and users.
Can we look at it, you are the core SIG.
