I've seen Firefox stall for a few seconds when opening a new tab, it's only
happened a few times so I can't really put my finger on when or why yet.

Firefox 3 on Hardy seems to be a mixed bag really.

One of my favourite extensions, HTML Validator no longer works.

The new bookmarks system breaks some of my own code that relied upon an old 
fashioned Netscape bookmarks.html file.

On the upside memory usage is much improved and it seems generally more 
responsive.
