Despite the continuing claims that each new version is faster (or at least less slow),this is still the most excruciatingly slow browser to load of any Ive tried, and every toy (add-on) that is added by people to try to make it work to suit them just slows it even more. The rabid FireSnail fan-boy family will scream and curse and deny, but they aren't changing the facts. P.S. Mozilla doesn't seem interested in correcting the problem of regular crashes either.

When they claim that it's faster, it's the web pages load time, the rendering time for CSS and Javascript, not the program's start-up time nor the download time (that depends on the bandwidth).

Just stuffing the browser again and again with something new won't make it faster.
Try to make something that could run faster on older computers!!
or atleast different versions like firefox lite and firefox loaded.
According to my previous experiences with this browser I had two problems-
1. Slow startup time.
2. Stability Issues.(It hung every now and then even on my 3ghz core 2 duo processor)
