Description Couret Charles-Antoine 2011-12-24 02:54:33 UTC
Description of problem:
I have updated Firefox in version 9.0 and 9.0.1.
But, the connection is very slow to find the address servers, after this step, the web page appears quickly. It's like a problem with DNS connection.

It's not a problem with my box, connection or other. Thunderbird for example don't have this problem with this update. And another software have this difficulty.

I have restart my machine with extension disabled. It's not better.
And, I have downgrade in Firefox 7, and this problem not appears ! I think Firefox 9 have this problem and only Firefox 9.0.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Firefox 9 or superior. 

How reproducible:
Start Firefox and the connection with a server is very slow.

Additional info:
I use Firefox in 64 bits.
I have tested with 2 connections different : 1 wifi and one Ethernet with 2 different FAI, the problem is persistent.

Sorry, the problem is solved by the Gnome proxy, this setting is enabled and after be disabled, no problem with Firefox 9.0.x.
