Chris,
Could you please add to the list of "tasks that are slow":
"scrolling of trees in the mail/news threadpane"
and
"switching pane focus in mail/news"
These two issues, Mozilla's startup time, and the abominable
slowness of surfing secure sites, are my biggest annoyances
with Mozilla as it currently stands, and I hope you can
address them before Mozilla 1.0.
Thanks,
--chris
