Safari Freezing

[Reality4711]

Cannot quite pin this one down.

Browsing any site more than occasionally of late my Safari freezes.

Hitting refresh will clear it or hitting forward if I have just hit back. The reverse is also true.

Cannot find a reason for this but it is happening more often

Any ideas?

Regards

Cannot find a reason for this ...

Where have you looked? It's always good to post what you've done already so you don't get a bunch of suggestions to do those things.

Thanks for the response Gregg2.

Not a lot (mostly ignorant user).

Cleared History, Cleared Plugins & I know there is something called cash but don't know where to look.

Searched Apple website 'help' for Safari Freezing with no success.

As I said 'not a lot'

I'm not at my Mac, but you could search "Safari clearing cache" and try that. It's a good step to try to solve the problem.

Go to Safari Preferences>Advanced and select "Show Develop menu in menu bar", The select "Empty Caches from the Develop menu.

Thank you all.

Cache emptied.

Now wait and see.

I will post the result after a couple of days usage.

I was having that issue as well. I downloaded the Safari Technology Preview and that seems to work OK. Just updated OS to Mojava Beta 4 yesterday and haven't tried Safari (non Technology Preview) again yet, but I will and will see if the issue persists.
