Machine: Samsung Galaxy Tab Step: Go to http://www.giscloud.com/ on a tablet with Firefox Native Aurora. Issue: The load time for this website is extremely slow on a tablet (many minutes) in comparison to running the same website on the phone and desktop. The loading circle just continuously keeps spinning as multiple minutes pass by, with the website not loading for a long time. If loading failed (e.g. timeout), I would expect an error to be shown, but does not occur. Eventually, the website loads in small pieces bit by bit, but the circle is still spinning, as the pieces of the website still haven't finished loading after many minutes. Running this in comparison on my Galaxy Nexus with Fennec Native Aurora does show the website loading a reasonable amount of time (e.g. seconds) over a 4G network. On desktop, the load time additionally loads in a reasonable amount of time over ethernet.
Note: Other websites tested such as ebay mobile, facebook mobile appear to be loading in a reasonable amount of time, so this may be an issue related to GIS cloud specifically.
jason, how does firefox Native Aurora compare against the default browser on the Tablet?
GIS Cloud on the Stock Browser completed loading in 10708 ms. Testing GIS Cloud on a Galaxy Tab again, the load time was 32459 ms. This is faster than when I initially saw the issue (it was taking minutes, maybe a network issue), but this page still loads significantly slower than the stock browser.
I just tested this site out (splash-page page load) on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Android 3.1), w/ Nightly (02/06) over home WiFi and it loaded pretty much without issue in a couple seconds. Jason, can you retest?

Retested. Looks like this is a problem with the actual website, not the browser. This time the stock browser was much slower: Firefox 11 Aurora: 50216 ms Stock Browser: 119657 ms
