That certainly is weird, and just as much annoying
I'm no expert, so just wild guessing too in the dark, a bit experimenting...
A while ago there was an issue with
gecko engine and svg-images, and some javascript stuff, which can cause freezes. At any rate it can't hurt to disable svg, it's very rarely used anyway so far:
Type about:config and filter svg, then set to false.
About the new gecko 1.9 javascripts there's not much to do, gecko 1.8 has huge problems with some of them :-( Perhaps you can figure out some of the sites that give you that problem and post the links? I wonder if they'd work with KM 1.6 (gecko 1.9), but only alpha version exists so far, leider!
Am a huge fan of the privacy bar too
And surfing only without javascript, unless a page really needs it. My ancient win98 with 256 RAM works far faster without any scripts, and hardly any annoying ads, hehe
Where is the profile installed, inside KM or in the user appdata folder?? (Edit > Configuration > Profile Directory) If it's in appdata, I'd try with a new profile. And make sure there's no layer stuff inside, although, if KM153 was fine, that's rather unlikely.
That chrome stuff makes me wonder much, thinking about it, guess I read about something similar when people updated from KM153 to KM154, and there it was translation related... If you have installed a language pack, make sure you have the special KM 154 pack. Obwohl, so gut wie dein Englisch ist, würd es mich nicht wundern wenn du auch eher in englisch rumsurfst
