Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox
I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on 1 PC and my Asus notebook. I upgraded to Firefox 3.5.4 on both these machines and also on another PC still running 9.04 (Jaunty). Asus notebook: Celeron M420, 1G ram, 80G hard disk. PC A (Karmic): Sempron single-core 2500+, 1G ram, 200G hard disk, Nvidia GeForce FX 5500 256M. PC B (Jaunty): Athlon XP single-core 2500+, 1G ram 200G hard disk, Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 128M. Site in question is the Hong Kong government's internet leisure link booking. 1st link: http://leisurelink.lcsd.gov.hk/?lang=en 2nd link: Click on "Facility booking - basic version" and pop-up appears to check config. 3rd step: Enter letters then load next page. Before, loads in Jaunty using Firefox 3.5.4 (3 days ago, just before 9.10 release) on all 3 machines for each link was very snappy and fast. No times were recorded then, of course. However, now in Karmic on the Asus notebook and PC A, loading has come to a crawl. Here are some times I recorded using PC A: 1st link: 67 seconds 2nd link: 74 seconds 3rd step: 45 seconds Using Jaunty, in PC B, I got these times: 1st link: under 2 seconds 2nd link: under 3 seconds 3rd step: under 2 seconds There is no speed problem in Karmic using Firefox with other sites which include my banking site login. These appear normal compared to Jaunty and possibly even faster. One difference between my Jaunty and Karmic installs is using ext3 and ext4 respectively. I have not tried using ext3 with Karmic. ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Firefox 3.5.4 in Karmic extremely slow at one site. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/466250 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
