It seems to be better, at least on osx. I have a number of add-ons enabled, and after a while, things slow down - I keep 15-30 tabs open at any one time. Using the nightlies I don't have as much issues as the 2.x series, from a performance point of view. -- http://www.glumbert.com/media/shift http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk "This officer's men seem to follow him merely out of idle curiosity." -- Sandhurst officer cadet evaluation.
