I am hesitant to say the problem has been resolved. I still experience periods where the program does not respond while I/O activity is intense. There might be two possible causes, specific to my installation: 1. Something in my user profile from earlier versions of FF which has been carried over. I know that a mailto fix in user.js for previous versions of FF caused me some trouble until I got rid of that file in FF-3.0. 2. Some FF addon is causing loss of response. If I were to switch to a new profile to see if the problem goes away, what files can I safely import from my existing profile? More specifically, is there a web link to change profile cleanly but without too much hardship, so that existing bookmarks etc. are preserved? Thanks.
