FF3 lags periodically (particularly when watching videos). Streams will be interrupted by a slight pause/lag every few seconds (ranging from 5-30 or so). Sometimes even typing in forums I find FF3 freezing for a few seconds.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any website with videos
2. Watch a video for a good minute or so
3. Should notice at least one if not several lag instances
Actual Results:  
I got really annoyed and did it over and over and compared it to IE just to make sure I wasn't imagining things. Friends have confirmed they have the same problem.

Expected Results:  
Streaming should be seamless hindered only by internet or pc limitations/overload.

FireFox 2 never had this problem. And FF3 just lagged as I typed that out...
