Slow switching tab in firefox/opera when the desktop
This problem can be fixed by updating the graphic card's driver. The
easiest way is to install Envy by typing sudo apt-get install envyng-
gtk if you use Ubuntu or sudo apt-get install envyng-qt on a Kubuntu
machine. Run it by accessing the shortcut installed in
Applications-System tools-EnvyNG,
I've noticed that canvas is extremely slow under ff3 - but only when
using nvidia drivers. I also have a cheap onboard intel video card in
one of my pcs and it renders canvas extremely fast with ff3. There seems
to be an incompatibility between firefox 3 and nvidia drivers - I'm
assuming this is
Very good chance this is the nvidia drivers. Check out the posts on the
nvidia forums, e.g.:

The good news is that nvidia have recognised there's a problem and are
working on it. Let's hope they get something out fairly soon :-S

I have the same experience, using the default theme. Most graphics is
slow (not just tabbing firefox, but clicking menues ...). Changin to an
emerald theme running pixmap engine resolves everything! It makes my
computer light as a feader. No latency, high performance, =).
System:
Znote 6224W
This is an emerald bug. Removing emerald (and keeping compiz effects on)
resolves this issue. Reinstalling emerald brings back the slow firefox
behavior. When using emerald, the theme engine plays a role. Themes
using the pixmap engine make firefox very responsive, almost as if
there's no issue.
I also have this bug. Kubuntu 7.10 + all updates, FF 2.0.0.12, NVIDIA drivers
169.09. The hardware config is:
Epox EP-9NPA+ Ultra, Athlon 64 X2 @ 2,5 GHz, 2GB Ram, 500G Sata2, NVIDIA GF
8600GT 256M, 1680x1050
Without emerald everything works fine.

opening and closing of tabs and windows are sluggish while the default

I have to say this should be a driver issue.
Now I'm using ArchLinux and before I upgrade the Nvidia driver to 169.12,
the problem exists in the same way.
But when I upgraded the driver two days ago, I find everything is working
well now.
Cause I don't have another Ubuntu box with nvidia card, can
confirm this bug. My system is a brand new dell xps 1530, core 2 duo
2Ghz, nvidia 8600m gt, latest from hardy repo.
I can compare with a gutsy system on my three years old desktop, AMD64 with
nvidia 6600GT. On this system loading, say, 6-8 tab at startup is slow, on the
new dell is really fast
I do not see a real performance improvement if I disable effects from
appareance panel.
I can see some improvements if I reduce the width of firefox window: in this
case the cpu usage during tab switching drops from 70-80% (really high) to a
more affordable 40%.
It seems that firefox has to
last note: on windows vista running on the same system, dell xps, the
tab switch is almost instantaneous.

A new update is when I re-install Gutsy Gibbon using the amd64 version, the
condition is much better.
It's still kind of slow in switch but it's much better than when I was using
i386 version.
I can't judge if it's because of the version switch.

My T60 is 32-bit, so the amd64 trick won't work with me.
