I need many, many TEST PILOTS (for an experimental build)!!!

ok, i'm noticing page rendering and GIF problems with this build, but that's down to all the regressions on the trunk i think.

Is this build preferable over Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040503 Firefox/0.8.0+ (mmoy-Pentium4a) made for pure P4?

Have been using this one now to visit the sites I visit regularly and it seems to work fine, very fast as well :). Athlon 3200XP+ w/512Mb, Windows XP SP1.

Here's an issue on porting issues and the what you have to deal with on A64:

I'm using this and an AthlonXP 1800+. I seem to get issues with parts of the page loading before others do, but I don't know if that's because of your thing or a regression in FF. Overall this performs very well though.

That may be due to some of the pipelining preferences. I noticed some interesting parallelism when I tried the higher pipelining prefs. At the moment it's a jumble due to that flicker/pause bug. I'm guessing that there was some code added that slowed things down. I'll be happy when the dust settles on that issue.

Hello moox,

First time running one of you builds and it is fantastic.
Fast and stable.
Only had one extension (create shortcut) that refused to load via drag & drop, installed from home page and all is well.
No problems with this build as of yet.
Thanks.

Hello

I tried to run this build, but it didn't do anything. The process was on the background but it didn't open any window.

I'm using Windows XP pro, Pentium 4 1.7 GHz

My older version works ok!
Thanks
