+1 I had similar experience with it a few years ago. Given that the laptops weren't as powerful back then, it was a big pain trying to debug using Venkman but that was the only decent debugger available then (that, and the "alerts") I heard that it didn't get a lot of attention from mozilla back then. Firbug wouldn't have existed if Venkman wasn't slow and had an easy-to-use UI.
