High Power Consumption with Firefox

Using Gentoo with KDE Plasma 6.1.4 with wayland and Firefox 130

I rebuilt Firefox disabling wayland support ( for Firefox only and this will force Firefox to use Xwayland ) and the high CPU usage problem is massively reduced or gone

I’ve also noticed the bouncy, overscrolling thing in Firefox is disabled ( good, I don’t like it )

I think it’s a bug in Firefox when it’s using wayland
