Is there anything I can try turning off in gconf of about:config that might
help? What can I nuke?
This is controlled by the security pref tab's attack sites and forgeries boxes. Nuking it while FF is closed might be helpful. In my FF3 profile with them turned on the file is 44584Kbytes. In my FF11 profile with them turned off the file is 557056 bytes.
Thanks Felix, I did.
I also found a set of tweaks that has really help with responsiveness. There is even a section of the dpi issue that would be worth a read:

I followed all the steps, creating new about:config keys where required. I turned the antiphishing off and nuked those sqlite databases.
Give Icecat a try too some time. It's far more GNU centric, so the 'safety' and 'protect the user' kind of things are somewhat better. I personally have tried it and like it except that for *me*, it sometimes seems to 'freeze up' for 5 or 10 seconds once in a while. I don't know if it was site specific or who- knows-what. Might (hopefully) just be *my* system, though it does it on my Slackware *and* the openSuSE. Still couldn't hurt to try it out. -- Powered by Slackware 13.37 06:56:50 up 6 days, 18:00, 2 users, load average: 0.74, 0.75, 0.77 Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived. - Isaac Asimov Registered Linux user #214117 at http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
