Bug 490538

I totally get your frustration with apps slowing down your computer. It can be really annoying when you're in the middle of something important and your machine decides to take a coffee break. The first thing to remember is that not all apps are created equal. Some are resource hogs that gobble up your CPU and memory, leaving your computer crawling. A good starting point is to check your Task Manager (if you're on Windows) or Activity Monitor (if you're on a Mac). These tools will show you which apps are using the most resources. Look for anything that's consistently using a high percentage of your CPU or memory and consider if you really need it running all the time. Sometimes, simply closing a few unnecessary background apps can make a world of difference. Also, make sure your operating system and all your apps are up-to-date, as updates often include performance improvements and bug fixes
