I've had this issue for, I don't know, 2 years maybe. Facebook as always been slow in firefox on my kubuntu machine, but it seems to have gotten worse.
When I type anything in a text box on the site, the letters show up at around one letter a second. Facebook apps are all slow as can be, and frequently the formatting within the app itself is messed up. I can grab a screenie if you think it'd help.
I don't know enough about web programming to know what things facebook runs behind the scenes to make things run, but I suspect that it's an underlying issue on my machine. I haven't noticed slowdowns on any other website in particular, but this machine doesn't go very many other places online. I did install the shuritoku or whatever firefox 3.5 is called. It had the same issue. As does seamonkey, and so does konqueror.
So do you think this is a java(script) problem? Flash maybe? Some other website technology?
If you need some piece of information, just spell out the exact command(s) you'd like me to put in, and I'll do it with all haste.
