Comments on: Firefox 3.0.10 slow on Ubuntu 9.04 http://www.djohnson.info/firefox-3010-slow-on-ubuntu-904/ Thoughts by Dan on a myriad of topics.

This setting basically says "don't request an IPv6 address and just get an IPv4 address". You can also speed up the start up of Firefox by setting your "Home Page" to show a blank page.

You're a genius. Mucho Gracias. Hey Thanks Dan, it’s been running slow for me on my Windows XP too, but I did your little trick and it’s snappy again. You’re a genius. Mucho Gracias.
