+1 Yup.  Just downloaded and tried it myself.  Much faster.

Firefox seems faster in the last day or two now and I haven't upgraded Tor.

It appears to be luck of the draw...the forums take years to load up and SR won't load up at all with Aurora.

Hmmm I wonder why they switched.

Aurora is just the dev version of Firefox, probably the people behind Tor trying to keep up to date. :)

I guess it could have been a caching issue, it is running much more smoothly for me now.
