Please don't spout this crap. Firefox has definitely improved a lot in some areas recently, and I'm sure competition helped, but this idea that it was getting worse before chrome is an artifact of websites getting more complicated.
Try to browse gmail or facebook with firefox 1.0 and it won't feel as slim or fast as you remember...

- homosaur 14y agoYou might want to try reading posts before commenting. I was clearly pointing towards startup time and general app respnsiveness, not actual speed browsing websites. But thanks for saying please.
