Comment 11 for bug 577531

Well, I don't know why, but it seems that firefox is running very slowly, and takes lots of the resources!
This bug is affecting me too. I have a fast internet connection (WLAN) and I can surf using opera normally. But with firefox you have to wait for a long time till the program starts, and then sometimes wait longer until the pages are loaded!
These problems began after an update of firefox on Ubuntu 9.10, shortly before 10.04 came out. I thought that through upgrading the system this will vanish but the same problem appeared again. The problem is just facing firefox, not other browsers. What I noticed is that the netbook is too busy when trying to load a webpage, including this site! In the past firefox was fast enough.
