Text Lags when Typing in Address Bar

When I type in the address bar, the text that appears is extremely slow and laggy. I can type just fine in a text box on a web page itself but in the address bar the response is so bad that sometimes the order of the characters is mixed up - it is really slow and unusable.

I disabled all suggestions and everything else but it is disappointing because Firefox is so much faster in every other respect. I am running it on an HP Spectre x360 with 16GB of RAM and anIntel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. There is no custom theme installed but I do have some extensions enabled (uBlock origin, lastpass). I tried the search bar in safe mode and it was still just as slow unfortunately.

Update: Here is a video of me typing "This is a fresh install of firefox and I am typing normal speed yet it is incredibly slow":

This is on a fresh install of firefox so there are no add-ons, themes, or anything
