Hmmm.... I'm running Firefox 1.5 on a 1.6 GHz with 512 MB of RAM, and it's
quite responsive. I have it running on a quad core Xeon with 16GB RAM and 3
SCSI 15k Raid 0 and it's not _that_ much faster...

Subject: [SLUG] Can Firefox run any slower?
Seriously, I'm wondering how people run this browser. I have it on a Duron
950MHz with 768MB of PC100 SDRAM. Ok so it's not a speed demon.
Other programs don't have an issue with it. The only reason I'm going to
upgrade the hardware is because of Firefox! It's just FF that runs slow as
can be. I run extensions, but as I recall, the same issue occurs when I
fire up the blank profile with no extensions. I'm so frustrated. Does
anyone have a miracle cure or tip on performance?
