All,
For some reason Firefox loads pages really slow on my 11.3 install. Chrome everything loads fast. I am running the latest of firefox.
I have done the usual tweaks to the about:config that I found on the internet. Is there a reason for this and can I fix it?
If you try a new user login with a non modified .mozilla folder
Is it slow?

How many plugins do you have installed? The more plugins that are
installed, the longer FF takes to start.

I don’t have any plugins at all and this is a fresh install. It opens up just fine, but loading pages seems to be slow.
Nope, disabled in network manager. 
I’ll just have to use Chrome for my browser now.
Sigh, and I’ve been a diehard mozilla/firefox fan boy forever for speed and alas it has finally jumped the shark.
still running slow and I’m running 3.6 on 11.3:/ anyone have any other ideas? Chrome loads extremely fast for me
I went through this on 11.4 ff 4.0 and disabling in yast network and a number of other places didn’t do anything.
The about:config did
Anyway as it wont load my old bookmarks I’ve switched to opera. Works straight out of the box.
