On my EL5 systems, this has not been the case at all :(  As mentioned,
I tested the load that launching each creates on the system (no
plugins and with plugins) and FF3 just crushes my K12LTSP EL5 system.
Doesn't matter if it is a 32bit or 64bit system.  I don't know why,
but v2 performs much much better than v3.  Perhaps at some points I'll
try and dig deeper, but right now I just have to have things ready for
the school which starts tomorrow morning at 7:30.

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
