Mozilla is the application which I find to be the slowest on my system, 
even beating java application sometimes in slowness.

I wonder if reimplementing gecko to explusively use the render extension 
would make it potentially faster in some instances, eg on an NVIDIA 
equiped, machine which supposedly accelerates the RENDER extension. 
Right now only font rendering is done with the RENDER extension.
