Performance Boost Web Browsing?

Chrome/firefox running very slow, sometimes 10 seconds or more page loads, some sites just crash all together.

System has a lot of Ram, NVME, but is using Nvidia GPU and 8 core AMD 3000 series.

Is there a setting that may be tweaked to help boost the performance ?
Would a CPU with integrated graphics help?
Can the GPU be used to help with workload ?

Please let me know, thank you.

Check the CPU and memory usage in the qube when it’s starting to work slowly.

What’s your screen resolution? The only way I can get firefox to run even remotely acceptably on a 4k screen is via offloading the qube’s graphics onto a discrete GPU (in my case nvidia as well). See Seamless GPU passthrough on Qubes OS with VirtualGL. There’s a long-term fix in the works (Xen Project Summit 2024 VODs are available on YouTube), but it doesn’t look like it will be ready anytime soon.
