I think I successfully built firefox-32.0.1 in blfs-7.6, but it is terribly slow, to the point of being unusable. I have tried various things that I saw on the web, such as: adding myself to the video group, enabling pipelining, checking that DRI is enabled, re-setting firefox. Nothing seems to help. Firefox loads alright and I can load web pages, but some sites (for example, www.zillow.com) take forever to load, and they don't really function correctly when they are loaded (for example the up/down and pg-up/pg-down keys don't seem to work properly). I am wondering if anyone else is having these problems with firefox, or has any suggestions.
Also, I heard that the Berserk SSL bug has been fixed in firefox-32.0.3:

I'm wondering if users should upgrade if they have firefox-32.0.1. If we do upgrade, does anyone know if we can use the same dependencies as for firefox-32.0.1 in the BLFS-7.6 stable book? I saw a discussion about upgrading gcc or changing optimization levels, but assuming that is addressed, can the other dependencies be the same?
