Hi there,

Opening the new google maps is incredibly slow in firefox for me - every aspect from map loading, clicking on route options, waiting for the popups with info on a just-clicked place to open up - googling a place/address, clicking through from google search results into maps , and getting directions from my home location can take upwards of 3/4 minutes, but if I paste the URL into Internet Explorer it works instantly...any advice?

I just tried the recommendations here, no noticeable difference:
