Bug Description
I have been running xubuntu intrepid for a few weeks now with the nightly builds of firefox 3. Everything seemed perfect until I went away for a week. When I came back, I updated all the packages and firefox. Ever since then, firefox 3 has been extremely slow, taking over 5 minutes to just open. The cpu is not being used and there is no disk activity during this time and nothing else major is running. I have tried releases of firefox 3 from before I noticed this problem and they still are just as slow, however, firefox 2 opens and runs normally. I dont have any idea as to what it could be and have not noticed this problem with any other application, nor have I found any seemingly related issues with my machine. Has anyone else noticed this or does anyone have an idea as to what it would be?
