Firefox in Windows is faster than Iceweasel/Firefox in Debian and
Ubuntu. Firefox in Windows is faster than Swiftfox in Debian/Ubuntu.
Firefox in Zenwalk is faster than Iceweasel/Firefox/Swiftfox in
Debian.(may be it is because of Zenwalk's low mem usage). Opera in
Debian is faster than Iceweasel/Firefox/Swiftfox in Debian. Opera in
Windows is fastest!

*Why?* Please clarify!


I doubt that the reasons can be given unless they are very obvious. This whole question of "faster" depends so much on feelings and specific applications/sites.

I know opera in Debian is faster on my two-seater than iceweasel. But that is when it reads my wordpress blog. But in most other sites the advertisements get in the way and then it is slower again.

I think it is a common complaint that FF in linux starts up slower than in windows. Took me awhile to get used to it.
