I just updated to the new Firefox 3.6 on my PC's , it asks for you close Firefox then restart ,it's supposed to kick in straight away but you don't really notice that much difference.
But if you shut down your PC and restart,WOW!!! ,what a difference in browsing speed,it's like getting a brand new PC.
Lots of other nice refinements as well.
Here's a quick explanation of what they did quoted from the Mozilla site.
Fasten your seatbelt: Firefox now includes the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, which gives the browser dramatically better performance than ever before. Firefox has always been fast, but this is the fastest Firefox ever (more than three times as fast as Firefox 3 and 20% faster than Firefox 3.5), meaning Web applications like email, photo sites, online word processors and more will feel snappier and more responsive.
Real World Performance.
You can get it here,it's freeware for those that don't know.
