[Sukhdeep Singh]

All my extensions are working except

1. Adblock
2. Fasterfox

FF3 looks like a disaster for my lappy. Opened 5 pages and

CPU: 99%
Memory: 140Mb

Waited for few minutes and the CPU usage never came down. I had to close it because I couldn't do anything else.

It's on IBM thinkpad T43 running Windows XP. 2Ghz processor and 1gig ram.

+1

Firefox sucks so much resources that it should be made Pi$$ta exclusive.

but the browsing seems slower..

FF3 is crap ....

 

[apoorva84]

downloaded...contributed to the record...but disappointed a bit..hangs like hell....thinking of going back to FF2...

only reason i am sticking to firefox is because of adblock plus and flashblock

anyway, have a look at this:*mozillalinks.org/wp/2008/06/sweet-plugin-microsoft-cake-20-for-firefox-3/

 

[Who]

[gary4gar]

Not the case for me. Though FF3 beta hanged on Ubuntu, but no problem with final verson

Use tamil's ads list in urlfilter.ini to block ads.

 

[Who]

Fanboy's is better IMO & a Element Hider for Opera does increase the speed by some seconds , BTWElement Hider removes whitespace from the blocked ads , thus it's a must use for me Fanboy's urlfilter.ini + Element Hider

*www.fanboy.co.nz/adblock/opera/ , for the people want to try it out.

FF3 sucks
man many extensions are not working
and cpu usage oh my god 100% CPU usage many times...the sites are loading slowly...
FF3 u are the worst browser that i have seen so far..
I had thought that u were lighter than FF2 but FF2 is far better than this
bye bye FF3...will downgrade to FF2 or use opera..
