Hi, i experience the same problem. Firefox becomes unusable, it freezes for 10 seconds (whole desktop) after each action i do (scroling, etc ...)

My hardware :

Dell XPS
 - Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 (2,50 GHz)
 - 3 GB RAM DDR2
 - nVidia GeForce Go 8600M GT

I also have a desktop PC
 - AMD Athlon 64 3500
 - NVidia GeForce 6600 GT
 - 1 GB RAM DDR2

Firefox (and compiz) renders much better on it, it doesn't freeze. So i think that it might be nVidia driver issue. (I'm not really sure since i'm new to Linux world). Both PCs have the same Hardy up-to-date, kernel 2.6.24-19-generic.
