[Bug 493450] Re: Firefox slow - Opera fast - when several tabs open in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala 64-bit

[Jorma]

Well, although the issue has been considered closed, for me Firefox has
continued to be slow in comparison with Opera. The problem has
disappeared gradually as a result of Firefox & system updates. I have
moved on to Ubuntu 10.4 (64 bit). Now with Firefox 3.6.10 the issues
seem to have been resolved. X-marks or the great number of bookmarks do
not seem to matter anymore.

Firefox is now lightning fast! As it was just before I moved from 9.04
(64 bit) to 9.10. From now on I shall adopt new Ubuntu versions less
eagerly than before. It seems to make sense to resist the (huge)
temptation to download a new version and see all the new goodies it
brings. I have made a vow to not to seek the early wow sensation
anymore. I shall let each new Ubuntu version to mature a few months
before I make my move.

In any case I appreciate very much the work of all developers who have
contributed to solving the Firefox problem. I do not now how you did it,
but I know that using Ubuntu & Firefox gives me a great joy. Thank you!
