I went back to 4b6pre20110305. The RC1 and newer builds are dog slow and unstable for me. I don't know what went wrong there...
4b6pre is as fast and stable as microb (except startup) for me.

That's not what I'm talking about. It's Linux and you want to write a script with sed and awk and grep and pipe it to stdout. What's the problem with this?

The problem with it is some ****** made it an XML file instead of a flat file like all config files were meant to be.
That makes your script either horrendously complex (implement a proper XML parser in awk) or ugly hackery (depend on the formatting details characteristic of how MicroB outputs it, rather than the XML's formatting-indifferent structure).
XML config files: a solution in search of a problem! Crushing souls and fighting the UNIX way since... well, whenever the !@#$ *****s started using them.

Anyone seeing slowness in Firefox 4.0 compared to earlier builds, could I ask you again to try these about:config changes and report the results? This was one of the only things we changed between 2011-03-05 and the final release, and it might affect memory usage and speed:
toolkit.browser.cacheRatioHeight -> 2000
toolkit.browser.cacheRatioWidth -> 1200
After changing these prefs, please restart the browser.
This should reduce the memory usage (but might increase checkerboarding). Please let me know if this gives you a better experience. Thanks for your help!

...and so it's released. Can be found at their site: http://firefox.com/m
EDIT: They've done something wrong this release, it's pretty damn fast. There's still some lockups(like while loading 9 tabs at once), but generally it's nice.
