And when trying to scroll on other websites, what happens?  I mention
this, because Facebook is one of those sites with lots of content
shovelled into a page, with lots of page layout styling applied to that
content.  Throw in scripting and advertising, and it makes for a
difficult-to-do-quickly webpage.

Also, and I haven't seen any other message address this, have you turned
off the "smooth scrolling" feature of Firefox?  It deliberately slows
down scrolling of pages, to try and do it in a smoother fashion.  I find
it horrendous, as my reading speed is much faster than it wants to
scroll pages at (I'm not talking about reading the whole page verbatim,
I'm talking about skimming through to find the content that I'm
interested in, I'm not /that/ much of a speed reader).

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
