Just updated to Firefox 58 and everything keeps hanging, like typing, scrolling and clicking on links. That says it all. Firefox in now almost unusable. The hanging last from 5 to 10 seconds. I have tried some of the suggested remedies but they have not worked.

hi, thanks for reporting this. can you try if this change can workaround the performance problem?: go to the firefox menu ≡ > options > privacy & security panel and under permissions check the setting to prevent accessibility services from accessing your browser.
