I've yet to try the v4 beta. Seems unlike that they've taken such a huge leap back from v3, though. I'm more inclined to say that Google's implementation on MacOS is inferior to Mozilla's.

Did you ever measure the difference with the Windows versions of the browsers, on said web sites?

No, it's been ages since I've used Windows.

In any case, FF 3.6 definitely doesn't feel slow on that site. Everything is pretty smooth except for scrolling which is a little jerky. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQ2PDbffKuQ

All in all FF 3.6 is a very nice update. It's noticeably faster than 3.5 on many websites. I used to use Firefox for general browsing and keep Chrome around for a few select websites that Firefox was slow at, but with this update FF is sufficiently fast so I don't need Chrome anymore.
