two main cases still cause issues:

 1. floating and absolute positioned div on the site
 2. a lot of css borders

 (3. some accelleratoin modes make tiled background cause CPU bustage)

anything of those you see on your sites?

This problem STILL persists with Firefox 3.0 (final).

Any website that uses Ajax, or a lot of fancy effects runs very slow.

http://www.shacknews.com/  is a good example, whenever the image in the
big box transitions to the next it slows the browser to a crawl.

This ONLY occurs for me with the NVIDIA drivers enabled. Therefor I have
no Compiz-fusion, games, Google Earth, etc if I want to run Firefox 3.0

its most likely the nvidia driver. ever tried our pristine nvidia
driver or the nv driver?

I can confirm this on Kubuntu 8.04 64-bit. I have 2x nVidia 8600GT
cards, using the closed drivers (installed via envy).

I'm not clear on how the themes work, but I'm guessing that KDE wouldn't
be using the GNOME human-murrine theme, so I suspect that is not the
issue for me anyway.

The above linked GUIMark benchmark gave me results of 20+fps on
WindowsXP and ~0.25fps on Kubuntu.

This is a quad core system with 4gb ram and 3 disks in RAID5, so I can't
see it being related to overall system performance. I have unfortunately
never been able to get KDE to run without the closed 'nvidia' driver, so
I can't give the benchmark results on the 'nv' driver.

The bug is in the human-murrine theme.

if you change to another theme in gnome scrolling is not that slow.

Narrowing it down:

I did a clean install of Ubuntu 8.04 on my Athlon64/GeForce 8600GT main
box.  The performance issues are GONE. It's still not as fast as my
Thinkpad T60 laptop but its close.  The ONLY thing I did after this was
install the NVIDIA drivers to get Compiz-Fusion working and when I
rebooted and tested again the issue was BACK.

So it looks like this bug is directly between the Firefox 3.0b5 and the
nvidia-glx-new drivers.  Since Opera 9.5 beta is just as fast running
these drivers its hard to say which is to blame. But one way or another
that pinpoints the problem.

Driver: nvidia-glx-new
Version: 169.12+2.6.24.12-16.34

So for now no Compiz-fusion for me : (  I'll just have to wait to either
a new NVIDIA driver or a new version of Firefox fixes it.

Update:

I have now installed Ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop (Thinkpad T60 with 2GHz
Core 2 Duo and ATI Mobility X1400 graphics).  I am running the default
install at this point. After checking the same websites the bug is NOT
present.

The package is the same, so could this have something to do with the
Athlon 64 3700+, or the NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT in my other box? It seems
like it must be some kind of driver issue but I find that strange
because the ATI in my T60 has always had poor performance, but not
anymore.

Gmail still scrolls slower than usual on my laptop but all of the other
sites mentioned it performs amazingly quick.

To further pinpoint this is a Firefox 3.0b5 issue I downloaded Opera 9.5 beta 2 
from  http://www.opera.com/
filename is: opera_9.50b2-20080422.6-shared-qt_i386-en.deb

It's a night and day difference in the sites mentioned. It behaves
around as fast as Firefox 3.0b5 does in Windows XP for me. If this was
resolved in Firefox it would become web browser bliss.

Another painful example:  http://www.tuaw.com/

Scrolls extremely slow in Linux. If I keep that page open in another tab
all my other pages are slower too.
