Sandboxed Firefox - Slow To Open


Tom AZ

Recommended Posts

My Sandboxed Firefox is rather slow in opening -- generally 13sec-15sec. Is this fairly normal when opening FF 2 under Sandboxie? Are there any setting tweaks to speed it up a little?

FF2 opens about as quick sandboxed as it does un sandboxed for me and I haven't tweaked anything for it.

Definitely several seconds slower for me -- 5 sec to 10 sec slower, in fact. I'm using Sandboxie 3.28.

This is because sandboxie has to copy files needed (written/access times) by firefox when it starts up to the sandbox folder. This is a normal delay when larger apps are started sandboxed. If it really bothers you maybe portable firefox will start up faster sandboxed. Probably not...
