Firefox randomly struggle while playing videos and scrolling
Hello everyone,
Firefox have been randomly struggling on my laptop for one or two weaks, after I've updated to the latest version, and reset my profile.
Videos, one any website, will play fluently, then hang up, and play fluently again, no matter if playing in windowed of full screen.
Scrolling suffers from the same problem. The page will scroll, then freeze, then update.
The only way to fix this issue has been to activate and force any GPU rendering, either normal of experimental.
But this comes with it's sets of problem, and I don't understand why I experience these difficulties, since the specifications of my laptop are not bad.
Here is the result of lshw:

Re: Firefox randomly struggle while playing videos and scrolling
Sounds similar to the problems discussed here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=247946
Try the i915.enable_psr=0 kernel parameter and/or using the modesetting driver instead of xf86-video-intel
