Hi Con, One thing that has annoyed me greatly lately, is that scrolling in firefox very quickly becomes a huge pain if you have any load on your box. I typically do make -j4 kernel builds on my laptop (core duo), and try to stay out of firefox for that period simply because it's not very responsive (to the point of being really annoying). A pseudo test of running two $ while true; do a=1; done produces the same result, firefox is unusable. So seeing your post, I gave it a spin. Works great for me, much better than the stock 2.6.21-rc3 wrt interactive feel. I know this is a subjective test, but believe me, there's a world of difference. -- Jens Axboe
