“Hmmm. I still have 3.0 but 3.5 is advertised as being “Twice as fast as Firefox 3.” Just to be safe, I think I will wait until the next bug fix to upgrade.”

Agreed. FF3 has been the slowest iteration of FF I’ve experienced. I’ve been hoping 3.5 speeds things up. But I’ll wait until the bugs are fixed.

Try IE8 running under Win 7 - my experience show it to be faster than FF

I’m running 3.5 now and its been noticeably faster than 3.0. I haven’t experienced this slowdown described.

Yes addons are behind the compatibility curve, but tbey always are. I use “nightly tester tool” to get them working.
