On my little tablet Twitch fires right up and instantly starts any room stream I enter.
But on PC it takes a good minute for it to start a stream going and if I open more than one tab of streams it feels like Im on a 386 and its lagged to hell and choppy and sound cuts in and out as it struggles to play a stream.
Is it FireFox or Twitch?

Re: Is it FireFox or Twitch?
Twitch on a tablet is probably using a highly optimized app. On Firefox, it might still be using Flash (even though Twitch streams are supposed to be fully transitioned to HTML5 - you can test and see if it performs better in Chrome).
Firefox for me comes to a screeching halt if I go into the silly pics thread when you guys post a bunch of large GIFs. It's just not a good browser anymore.
