Put the following pref line into your user.js into the Moz profile and that thing flies!
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);

Here's my user.pref, tuned to a speedy (low latency) ADSL line: user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 36); user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 12); user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 6); user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 3); user_pref("browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl", true); user_pref("network.proxy.type", 0); user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);

Company News. McDONALD'S PLANS TO CLOSE MORE RESTAURANTS McDonald's said yesterday that it would close more underperforming restaurants in the United States and Japan. It did not say how many. The company also said it would retain its $1 Value Menu, which has increased business but decreased profit margins. James J. Cantalupo, the new chief executive, said that drastic changes at the company were not necessary but that small modifications like keeping restrooms cleaner and providing customer service were. Mr. Cantalupo also said that McDonald's would not provide quarterly earnings forecasts in 2003, but would focus on the long-term goal of rebuilding its business. In December, the company warned that it would not meet earnings expectations and would close 175 lagging restaurants. Sherri Day (NYT) [New York Times: Business]
Best piece of news in years: McDonald's is shrinking! That will be a tremendous progress in public health!
