Author FF Performance problem, rendering has become very slow

It seems that my FF has suddenly gotten really slow. It might be the
CSS. The page content comes down OK and then watch the CSS rendering
make it pretty.

I just plugged one of the URLs into IE and it ran much faster.

Except for letting the updater download stuff when it wants to, I
haven't reinstalled FF on my machine is ages.

ISTR fixes to other problems that involved setting obscure switches,
etc. I wonder if this isn't a problem that someone recognizes and
knows of a fix for.

Thanks

I don't know what OS you're using, so I will assume windows.
If so, then close FF, then click on the windows start
button, then run and enter:

firefox.exe -safe-mode

do things work better now?

Did you do the update to FF 2.0.0.11? I had exactly the same problem but
that was with version 2.0.0.10. Going to 2.0.0.11 solved that slowness
problem.
