Just to complete the spectrum of data, I am running FF 1.5.0.8 over XP on a Pentium D, 1.5.0.7 over Linux (Ubuntu 6.0.2 LTS)on an old (1,2 GHz) Pentium , NS7.2 (Mozilla) over XP (modern 586) and IE over XP (modern 586)-on a different machine - and FF on Linux gives by far the best performance somehow more "satisfying", although loading characteristics vary quite a lot.
