Ive been using the G4 optimized version of FF since it came out. However, in the past couple of weeks, it seems to be slowing down- both in rendering pages and scrolling. I remember that there was a way to trash a file to restore it to its original "snappiness" - a search didnt yield any answers. Does anyone remember what that was? I would hate to delete all my bookmarks though.

Usually I don't mimick the same question but I noticed that Firefox is really slow at scrolling especially compared to Safari but I like it so much more than Safari that I made Firefox my default browser. It may be a bloated app that needs updating but if there's a quick fix that anyone knows about feel free to put in your 2 cents.
