I have checked many other sites to reproduce this "bug" and I can now say that is should be considered a "show stopper". It appears that it's related to the javascript performance (or AJAX or something similar) and is TERRIBLE.
Another good example is any website that offer Ajax images such as: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/ssotd/ These images on any other machine should load very swiftly and smoothly. Especially with Firefox 3.0 (compared to 2.x). They load EXTREMELY slow. I dual boot WinXP on this machine and I can compare the javascript performance and it's night and day. I have also tried a Mac OS X box running Firefox 3.0 beta5 to further test it. One of the huge improvements in Firefox 3 is obviously supposed to be its performance (among other things). My iPhone is actually faster at this point. This is a huge bug. The package update today: 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu2 has not changed anything related to it. -- Slow performance with Gmail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217580 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
