Firefox 3 is fast. Even thought it is not as fast as Safari 4, Firefox 3 is good enough. For Mac users, Neil Bruce Lee built a Firefox 3 optimized build for Intel/G5 Mac. Since it is optimized, the software runs faster. It also loads the site quickly.

Download the build right here. Choose which build you want. Be ware that add-ons and themes may break, so do a backup. Note the optimized build will not overwrite the existing Firefox 3 installed, since it is called as “Minefield”. The reason why the icon and the name is not the same as official Firefox 3 is to prevent the legal problems.
