I set all of the settings to the listed defaults and the browser is now chugging along versus its previous peppy pace. Uninstalled the extension, restarted FIREFOX, and the browser is still chugging along and is dead slow at window controls and tab switching. I strongly recommend you to not install this extension as it does not "revert" changed settings back to their originals. Slowed my browser down dramatically with bad “Paint & Rendering” settings.
