    Does anybody else's entire computer slow down as soon as they open wuxiaworld? Because as soon as i open it my whole laptop starts to lag like crazy.

    I have issues with wuxiaworld and novel updates sometimes as the ads try to use adobe flash player and try to crash my Firefox cuz a plug-in has stopped working.

    it happens to me on the many novel sites ONLY when i turn off my ad block. I'm pretty sure it's the ads they are running that's slowing it down. at least, unless you are running ad block already, in which case, i dunno.

    yeah, i did that for a while, but i couldn't read the novels properly, so i gave up.

    Probably because of video ads and such. Turn on Reader mode(if you use Firefox) helps.

    Yes especially if you're using a browser like Chrome or Safari!

    Make sure to note that webpages can load multiple pages or may have ads that are invasive opening in the background causing high CPU usage.

    It's probably ads (adblock is also a memory hog, though). I've been having trouble with some NU pages as well, lately. I think it depends on which ads are showing, since it doesn't always happen.

    Then again, my internet really sucks. Sometimes I'll walk 15 minutes to campus just to get better wifi .-.

    I had to turn off JavaScript for wuxiaworld on phone and computer to stop the issue. Both have a hard time loading and scrolling on the site otherwise. It's mainly the video ads that slow it down so much. Disables chapter index, but otherwise everything else is fine

    Turning off Java Script should work. It works especially well on iPads, with the drawback being a lack of reading view.

    There's an add-on called No Script for Firefox, but I don't no about others.
