Can anybody confirm that in recent versions of ABP and/or Firefox the "Filter Preferences"-dialog is opening very slowly?
In an older Firefox-version (24), ABP 2.6.6. with three EasyList-lists and three FanBoy-lists is opening in around 1 second, regardless of how the lists are sorted or which list is selected.
In a recent Nightly with a recent ABP-dev version and the same filterlists, the dialog takes four to eight seconds to open, e10s enabled or not.
Opening the EasyList-filterlist with the lists sorted on "Last hit" takes over 10 seconds.

Re: Filter preferences slow to open
Right-click one of the column headers (e.g. Hits) and choose Sort By, then Unsorted.

Re: Filter preferences slow to open
Found the culprit: It's any of the e10s-shims enabled in Nightly 2014-11-03, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1063156.

Opening the filter preferences, with sorting set to "Last hit":
Before that build takes about 1 second,
With that build and all newer builds it takes 3 seconds.
Opening the filter-options of EasyList ("Actions"), with sorting set to "Last hit":
Before that build it takes about 3 to 4 seconds.
With that build and all newer builds it takes more than 10 seconds.
You can disable the shims in recent Nightlies with extensions.interposition.enabled;false (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1102634).
With that config set, the times drop back to the level of before 2014-11-03.
EDIT:
The regression-range above applies to non-e10s. NOTE: Even with e10s disabled, the user is affected by the e10s-shims!
With e10s enabled, the range is:

Re: Filter preferences slow to open
Confirmed, noticed the difference right away - is this safe to disable with e10s disabled (ie: no compatibility issues)?
Re: Filter preferences slow to open
The shims were optimized recently (http://bugzil.la/1164014 ; Nightly 2015-06-10), so this particular slowdown regarding e10s isn't happening anymore.
