I use Firefox 3.0.5 on Linux. I have 10,000RPM drives in RAID 0, so my computer is always faster to open a local app than to open a webpage.

- arockwell 18y agoWhen I put ubuntu on my machine at home firefox 3 seemed substantially slower than it did on windows. I'm not sure if FF3 is crappy on iinux or if there was something about my install that was screwed up.
- boucher 18y agoFirefox has some serious issues on Linux. It's admirable that they make a browser for Linux, but they do seem to let a lot more fall through the cracks than on other platforms. For example, I've seen several websites that crash Linux in Firefox -- not good. The rendering in general is also not as good as win/mac, esp. with respect to transparency.
- quoderat 18y agoStrange -- it seems faster in Linux to me than in Windows, though I've never done any formal benchmarks. Haven't had any crashing problems, either.
