It look Kewn but half my plug-ins were out of date apparently and i had to remove them. And GPU-z reports some GPU usage which is pretty cool too.

No prob, can't surf the net without it, haven't watched or seen an advertisement in years, works even for youtube, would go as far as to say it's 100% effective, it's like spraying cockroach... next min they're all gone.

What's the font issue? Can someone post a good-quality screenshot?I've been using v.4 for quite some time now, the only glitch was youtube videos - I had to disable hardware acceleration for them to work. Now all seems fine. |

Adblocking is not very nice to the site owners tho, which make their hosting money through the very same adds you just blocked. I try to block only the really annoying adds that are flashing and blinking all the time.

Granted that is true, but I have a program at work that loads a list of servers and when it loads, firefox freezes nearly every time. I'm tired of it not working when I need it to.

![]() *edit* interesting, others report GPU usage around 40%, but I have around 6 average and about 15 max. HW acceleration is enabled. This is when watching 720p videos. Any ideas? Last edited by Swamp Monster; Mar 22, 2011 at 07:19 PM. |

I just checked mine with youtube fullscreen it's 6-7% usage, occasionally going up to 12% and back to 0%, might be because it's a different gpu from yours, or because I've got hardware acceleration disabled (if I enable it youtube doesn't work). ![]()

I manually enabled HW accel in about:config menu too, and still low GPU usage, buut everything works well. Youtube works too with it enabled for me.
*edit* I heard that they are not planning to release 64-bit version because there is no working 64-bit flash plugin. Last edited by Swamp Monster; Mar 22, 2011 at 08:24 PM. |

Hmm, where's the non-beta 64 bit version? I thought this would be it...

Am I the only person who has never had any problems with Firefox?
Using 4.0 right now. Reminds me very much of Chrome. |

Haven't seen anything to help it, and it doesnt seem like a screen cap can capture what I am seeing. Its just a slight blur/fuzziness/softness that isn't there with HW accel disabled.

Yes its annoying though. And at inetrnet exploer 9 happens sometimes. Only chrome is the one I haven't see this. I hope it will be fixed with the updates.

I'm really liking this, new fonts, smoother interface, and the design just works for me.
still works with all my addons too, except for IDM, mite need to upgrade to a new one... don't know about faster but it's definitely smoother, especially with smooth scrolling on. I've heard it's faster because of hardware acceleration, but I didn't find an option to enable or disable that, where is it? |
