Well JIT was disabled on Firefox, but even before that happened,
something has made firefox glacially slow on all of my workstations.

Probably Moasic, Netscape would have been too slow with Javascript
support to do anything useful...Kind of like firefox today (and
thousands of MHz later)

get a faster processor and more memory.
I don't care what you have...you need a faster processor and more memory
for modern browsers.

When the browser claims it is 10% faster than before, that's on a
processor that's twice as fast.  That's a cynical exaggeration, but not
as big an exaggeration as I wish it was.

I'm really stunned at how much processor memory the modern browser
leaks, considering we once used browsers on 486s with 16M RAM.

I was going to say, don't run resource hungry browsers on your servers, but 
that aside,
modern browsers are resource hungry beasts, and for them to run comfortably, 
you may
need to adjust some of the rather conservatively set resource limits upwards.

Some relevant, possiby suboptimal choices but of the WorkedForMe(TM) kind, see

You can start with sending which versions of both OpenBSD and Firefox
you are running.

If it's -current, then it _might_ be related to recent W^X changes[0].

Hi,


Try seamonkey and chrome see if you are getting same result or they are
working smooth?
also check with ulimit .. otherwise midori is good alternative.
