i have effectively given up on firefox. it used to be annoyingly
slow, but annoyingly has lately turned into agonizingly, where FF
regularly sucks up 100% of the CPU according to "top" (admittedly on a
core 2 duo system).
in fact, at the moment, firefox is listed as using just over 118%
of the CPU, whereas seamonkey is sitting down around 0.3%. i used to
really like firefox. how did it turn into such an unmitigated
disaster?
