I have noticed this too. I first thought it was my DNS, then my ISP, but Chromium seems to be working at lightning speed compared to Firefox.

Firefox will just sit there and try to connect to websites, saying it is "waiting for website", when in fact, there's nothing in my Apache logs. It could very well be my add-ons though, but disabling them all and restarting Firefox did not change anything.

linfan, you reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an issue. So the bug report can now be closed? If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
