That's likely because the SeaMonkey release has made its way to the FC1 
repos by this point. At the time I used that repo to update moz, that 
wasn't the case.

Some users have reported conflicts when mixing repos, but ymmv. Dag's 
rpm's have worked fine for me -- but I don't hit that repo with yum, 
rather I go to Dag's site and grab the specific rpm that I'm after. (His 
java jre and moz plugin for the jre are two excellent examples.)

Slow in what sense? Slow to open? render a page? Firefox, Moz, Konq, 
Galeon and Epiphany all seem quick enough here. Can you describe further?
