  do any of those bugs refer to the fact that (at least for me)
firefox is still teeth-grindingly slow?   i've mentioned this before
and i've tried everything i can think of to speed it up but, at this
point, it's utterly unusable.  even sitting there, it perpetually
sucks up 100% of the CPU on a dual core system, while seamonkey will
happily sit there, idling along at about 0.8%.

  i'll give it another shot with F11 but, really, i can't believe how
utterly useless firefox is.
