That is true

That's what it looks like, I also get that youtube spinning ball on some videos. The safari freezing has slowed down though

I notice its much worse with the adblocker extension. If you have that, delete it

Rather update it, as the AdBlock extension works perfectly fine for me.

Doubt it's AdBlock, then. Run through the rest of your extensions and older add-ons you may have.

If it got better right after deleting it so wouldn't that point to adblock being the culprit?
