I assure you that people who don't use Mozilla-based distributions aren't making such a decision on the basis that DHTML pages scroll slowly.
Have no fear, such distributions know the most important user complaints (they have direct interaction with users regularly) and prioritize accordingly. You're apparently speaking based on personal experience, i.e. what annoys you.

You people are getting behind the curve... tabs are already totally expected, for example. If you want to pick up some new people, your tabs will need to save themselves at exit and you should make the tabs schedule reloads (so the user gets updates when HE wants) for serious users of a browser for research and that will be part of raising the status of Mozilla (Netscape) to being a browser for more refined tastes. And it appears the feature you have for checking if there's changes on a page does not work. This isn't just a simple bug that can be fixed sometime later. And neither is the History feature which loses its sort order every time it is closed. These "harmless bugs" that can be easily fixed later should be fixed now! You are not endearing too many people, and you need to do just that so that these people who are right now testing your software can really have something to tell other people in the general population about! These type features are things that people hold very personal and they want them working. These days, if something's going to become popular in the marketplace, it already does amazing things that satisfy people before it even is being widely sold or made available.
Certain web pages that have dhtml are going to have to scroll faster, now. Back and Forward are going to have to load pages already seen just as fast as Internet Explorer.
And, in general, Mozilla programmers are really going to need to knock themselves out to come up with that which other browsers will simply not be able to do for a long time. The commitment by talented individuals is there for something really superior, but maybe some of these realizations aren't materializing in your brains. There is not a lot of time to make this thing great and get it noticed.
