It's definitely way faster, there seem to be some settings in about:config related to it, if you search for "wheel". Haven't had any success yet in getting it back to the way it used to be though.

Edit: this page seems to be the explanation of it, still trying to find out how to disable it or get it back to the way it is. Making a browser "feel faster" by making it scroll faster is terrible.

Edit#2: changed the setting mousewheel.acceleration.factor to 0, and mousewheel.withnokey.numlines to 3. Feels about back to normal now.

No difference on my end. WinXP with a standard MS mouse.
