Hi All


I am noticing singnificant performance degradation  in firefox in Freebsd ,
I would say right from the beginning, I have other partition where I run XP.


for comparison purpose

I notice the same page  when I load on Freebsd partition it is slow on
Windows XP it loads real quick.

Is this link

Good place to start the tuning of firefox.

Is there something more than this I could do to speed up the performace of
firefox in Freebsd ?

Thanks
