Safari is slow after Mojave update

Hi,

I've installed Mojave two days ago, but I have started to notice Safari getting stuck for about 4-5 seconds after going to the previous page (in sites like YouTube or Reddit). It's strange as I've got a freshly installed OS and a powerful machine (15 inch 2017 MPB).


Does anyone have this problem?

MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, macOS Mojave (10.14)

Peter I experienced the same problem with Safari. Die hard Apple guy here. I have used Safari forever, but it became way to slow. Forget removing the cookies and browser history. Forget the Adblocker. I was forced to move on to Firefox with its built in adblocker. Firefox is lightening fast. It took a short while to complete the switch, customizing Firefox to look just like Safari..... only faster ... lol.... Apple must look into this .

Same exact problem. A few months ago, safari suddenly became so slow it was nearly unusable. I completely restored my macbook, and started from a clean slate. SAME PROBLEM. I've since switched to chrome and it works perfectly, no speed or responsiveness issues whatsoever, and I suggest you all do the same until (or if) this problem is fixed.
