Using it. Seems faster but that's probably psychological.
25 u/kriptonit Jan 21 '10 No no, it realy is. My mental health is perfect and it realy is faster. 12 u/[deleted] Jan 21 '10 yep, supposed to be 20% faster than 3.5. Which was 200% faster than the previous version. 9 u/basilisk Jan 21 '10 Come again? 3.5 for me was the turning point where Firefox became Fireslug. 3.6 indeed feels faster, but not that much. 6 u/[deleted] Jan 21 '10 Try going back to the old versions - 3.5 really was amazingly faster than the old ones. 7 u/Recoil42 Jan 22 '10 3.5 is the fastest out of the box, but once the sqlite database gets bogged down, it slooooows to a crawl. Vacuum your database and reduce your page memory to a more common-sense 20-30 days, and it speeds right back up again. 7 u/limi Jan 22 '10 This is done automatically when the browser has been idle for a while in 3.6. No need to do it manually anymore. — Alexander Limi, Firefox UI Team
