I just downloaded the binary from mozilla.org and installed it under 
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0rc2 and changed the references in /usr/bin/firefox.  My 
performance is *much* better now.

Once they get an RPM out, I'll switch.  But for now, I'm able to actually work.

Thanks for letting me know that RC2 is fixed for this issue, sounds like the way to go. You're right about how inconvenient it is. :-)

I dl´ed the RC3 binary from mozilla.com and it does seem to work better.
Unfortunately it's a 32-bit binary so a lot of my plugins don't work. I
can't seem to find a 64-bit version anywhere. I seem to remember Mozilla
used to keep a larger set of binaries in ftp.mozilla.com, not all of
which appeared on the Web page, but now it's gone.

Anyone managed to obtain (or build) a 64-bit version of RC3?

PS I don't understand why this isn't considered important enough to be
put in the updates repo.

Not I but Mozilla has announced that Firefox 3 will be officially released on June 17th, so I imagine the Fedora 9 update won't be far behind.
