I tried the Gentoo FF source ebuild. That was utter rubbish. Firefox was unresponsive and laggy. Struggled on long pages and rendering the options dialog.

The binary ebuild was a lot better. The speed increase (especially back/forward navigation) is definitely noticeable. I've not yet seen any problems with Flash. The only issue I've had so far is a chrome registration failure error on first run, which hasn't affected much.

Edit: the discussion about long text in the user info box has been split.

Quote: drag-and-drop reordering of browser tabs

FINALLY!!! Now all I need is a reorder or my windows task bar and I will be happy (kinda )

Any details on the bugs?

There are loads of bugs in this update, especially for Flash sites. I'm going back to the previous version for now.
