I am still surprised at how Firefox lags behind, as in the lack of progress there. On Ubuntu 9.10 x64 firefox is horrifically slow. The only reason I don't run chrome for everything is because I can't reload a single frame and firebug is just uber better than chrome's kits.

Agreed. Wild speculation, but I think the Firefox codebase might have hit critical mass and its just too hard to manage it. I'm anticipating using Chrome much more once webkit improves their dev tools to surpass firebug (what's the hold up!?).
