Comment 75 for bug 107093

I am still using firefox 2, and I must say, that with gmail, it is almost
intolerably slow.
To click the link for this auto generated email, I have to wait at least 7
seconds before I am able to get the cursor in the edit box and type. Also,
with the long threads... sometimes, scrolling these will actually cause such
disruption in my computers processing that playing mp3's (rhythmbox) will
pause for a few seconds before resuming once firefox has recovered.
As of today, I still haven't tested firefox 3 b5 on anything but ubuntu
hardy LIVE, and so it wasn't a fair test run (as it was running from CD). I
will give futher progress reports when I finally install firefox3 (I am
tossing up whether or not to replace the small 30gig harddrive first).
