It's strange as the page is simple.

Actually the difference is quite small. I was hoping the results with just a hosts file would have been better, because no blocking add-on was involved (except for noscript). Hence the switch to no blocking at all, except for noscript.

The CPU load increases when a simple forum website is being used for a while. This may also explain the earlier possible out-of-memory-related error, which wasn't expected. Typing long messages doesn't help either. After a while typing is almost impossible. BTW, seems like SM for OS/2 doesn't support a faulty HTML "lang=es-es" setting when "lang=es" is a standard):

.

If the language of the browser is English, ours is, then e.g. "lang=es-es" or "lang=nl-nl" results in all non-English words being misspelled, despite of a FF "es" or "nl" dictionary being installed. Perhaps this effect accounts for a part of the lasting increased CPU load. While typing this the CPU is load is less than 100%. When I go to a phpbb forum to type a message too, without animated adds, the CPU load increases to 100%. If I would start typing a long text, then the system remains responsive but editing text is almost impossible.

Just reporting, I'm not expecting FF fixes.

Which settings, with an installed dictionary add-on, are required to force a website's MLE to use the right language?

In this case a dictionary language being "right" may be defined by e.g. a phpBB website's <html lang="de"> setting.

Not sure exactly what you mean but under Preferences-->Browser-->Languages you can change the order of how dictionaries are checked.
Our language support has been a bit mickey moused to keep code page support so it is quite possible there are bugs.
