I've noticed some loading time issues, but then again, I just got a new ISP and their service is slower than my previous one, so I don't think I'm in a real position to judge.

When on my local server, everything is fine, it's just online... so maybe it's Firefox... or maybe it's my standards for loading times thanks to my old ISP... I don't know :P

Yeah when I've had FireFox 2 open for over a day it really grinds to a halt. It sucks on my CPU when I load a new page and images render very slowly. Eventually it just crashes out on me. Closing it and re-opening it seems to bring it back to life again but there are obviously still leakage issues with this release. I'm starting to go off FF if they don't sort out the resource problems.

Memory leak experienced here, upto 500mb and then kaputs.

I use Konquerer at home, just becuase of the memory/reource issue with FF.

While I have noticed image loading be a tad slower than say IE7, it's not enough for me to be annoyed.
