firefox 2+fasterfox vs firefox3 which is more fast?

Hi
i'm still using firefox 2 + fasterfox becaues there are not nice skin and some plugins are not updated for firefox3

well
between firefox 2 last version+fasterfox vs firefox3 (it hasn't a fasterfox plug) which is the more fast?

thanks

 

FF3 is fine, and it also had better security than FF2. FF3.1 supposed to out soon, which by all accont is going to be that nuch better.

 

Exactly. Besides, Fasterfox just changes some settings that can also be changed manually. There are numerous tutorials how to do this. Fasterfox is definitely no reason to stick with FF 2.x.

 

Also most extensions and themes can be made compatible using the Nightly Testers Tool extension.

yes?
but is stable?

 

I can not speak for all add-ons. But the 2 I use it for, Back-forward drop down button and paste and go work just fine.

 

i installed the last 3 version
but it's more more slow the v2 +fastfox
i mean browse site with images

 

As tlu suggested HERE. Do some searching and manual tweaking. Google about:config tweaks. Firefox 3.0.0.5 is every bit as fast as 2.0.0.XX was on my 2 PCs.

 

i got it
but i would like a component that boost firefox 3

 

The manual tweaks will do the same for FF3 that faster fox does for FF2.

 

can i give me a good site to tweak ff3?

 

i tried to enable TraceMonkey

Code:

# In the filter field type: javascript.options.jit.content
# Double click on it to change the boolean value from false to true
# Restart Firefox to apply changes

but there is not javascript.options.jit.content

 

Take your choice.

 

is not the TraceMonkey available in ff3 3.0.5 ?

 

Sorry, have never used it. Do`t know.

 

i had to go back to ff2
ff3 doesn't work with babylon translator

 

Fasterfox DOES work with FF3: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9037. There are also a ton of translation tools available there. You'll have to get onboard FF3 at some point because there aren't going to be any more updates to FF2. Also, it sometimes takes a while for developers of extensions to update to new FF releases. These people are almost 99% plain old home users that come up with ideas/extensions in their free time. If an extension is popular enough and it can be done, extensions WILL sooner or later be updated to work with new FF releases.

 

yes
but to download fasterfox i should log in

and about babylon translator it doesn't work with ff3

 

I don't understand what you mean about "logging in". The link takes you right there...or am I missing a part of this? As far as Babylon, I guess you're just out of luck until they update it to work with FF3, though, again, there are a ton of translation extensions available.

 

As another poster stated Fasterfox works fine with all versions of v3. There is also FireTune.

 

you can do everything fasterfox does by typing about:config and editing there.

 

Oh, ok, well that sucks.
