Surely you jest :) I've ran both mozilla nightlies and milestones
on the O2s at the MCVL (64mb/180mhz iirc), and even though they don't
swap out (amazingly enough) it's so slow as to be unusable, on the order
of 10-20s to load slashdot, for instance. On Octanes it's pretty
decent. Is RC1 noticably faster than earlier builds?
