rpm -q firefox xulrunner xulrunner-1.9-0.60.beta5.fc9.x86_64 firefox-3.0-0.60.beta5.fc9.x86_64 Wierdest thing, only started today browsing bugzilla (but may happen on other sites, just happens that's all I'm doing today): 1. launch firefox 2. goto https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ and open a ticket or 2 3. wait 1-2 minutes 4. see, hear, experience laggy machine due to firefox grinding io/cpu. I'm not swapping
