[Bug 232197] Re: firefox 3.0 very slow on some sites, blocking computer

[kiomava]

At least in my case this seems to be an nvidia bug.  I found in the
nvidia forums:

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=114858

I tried their suggested temporary fix:

nvidia-settings -a InitialPixmapPlacement=0 -a GlyphCache=1

They say this will be fixed in a future driver release.  I tried the
nvidia-supplied 177.13 beta driver and the fix wasn't there.

Their fix helped a lot. Firefox doesn't freeze anymore.  Unfortunately,
those nvidia-settings options seem to make compiz segfault, but I can
live with that.
