Firefox 3.6 Slow for anyone else?

Tried it for 2 days and decided to go back to 3.5.8. It is based off a new platform apparently. Started up quick, but, everything (animations, flash, java...) was VERY slow and choppy. Running Vista Ultimate 32 bit... $500 nVidia video card, P4 with 4 gigs of RAM... i think its a software issue myself.

Anyone have problems with it?

Very quick for me.
Dual core 3.0, 2 GB ram, XP Pro, Nvidia 512 MB video card, ect...

The only site that is slow is here, as we are having some issues.

Yeah things load up quick, but the menu's, text-boxes, GMail (with its fancy stuff), the little emoticons, etc... are all having choppy weirdness. ANnnnnnnoying! I have 3.5.8 now and its smooth as silk.

Plus all my add-on's weren't supported in 3.6!! AD Blocker, FireFTP and WebDeveloper

That is weird, as I run Ad Blocker Plus and it works fine for me with the new Firefox.

Animations are fine too.
