The painfully slow one, you mean? Sure, it's pretty...
The painfully slow behavior _may_ be explained by hidden links (porn *&
other) that I have found (and expunged) several times in the recent
past. My observation was that rendering slowdown always accompanied the
presence of the funny-business.
Perhaps you would be so good as to do an experiment: visit
http://www.kernel-panic.org/wiki
and see if it seems any faster to you.
Painful slowness in Firefox occurs in a couple different contexts I found:
1) Too many things in the Tools -> Downloads window. Don't ask me why
clearing that list speeds things up, but it seems to.
2) Too many plugins. I really like some of the plugins, but they really
add up in terms of time. You have to use only the ones you really need.
AdBlock, in particular, can be a *hog* if you give it too many rules.
