Right now, Firefox 4 is being designed with Direct2D Acceleration,
which means that Firefox 4 will perform a significant amount of Web
2.0 stuff nicely on Windows, but terribly on Linux.

There is a petition for Mozilla to implement OpenGL Acceleration
support (and hopefully switch), but it does not have many supporters.
Would everyone please vote for it and also ask people you know to vote
for it too?
