which gfx hardware is that? radeon? The "speedup patches" for alpha-blended 
images that have gone into 3.5 tree have caused awful regressions there. 

if its nvidia, then its unfortunately a wontfix. nvidia has changed their 
driver to make firefox faster, and they will not re-add acceleration for 
"qt3's weird ways of abusing xrender". Unfortunately a proper fix requires 
someone familiar with qt and X and Xrender; and thats not me. Unfortunately 
qt4 did not fix this issue, so in the long term we'll have to work around Qt 
and add direct xrender handling in KHTML.

revert  r502582 and try again.
