Firefox 3 has problems in some long websites

I love the current release of firefox 3, there is only one thing that is bothering a lot:

Since I've started using firefox 3 I can't properly browse long pages. Firefox 3 seems to stutter when browsing long pages which severely impacts my experience on those websites. I've created this video to show what I mean, I opened reddit and tried browsing using Firefox3 at first, and then Safari. You would notice a stark difference in the really fast browsing in Safari compared to the stuttered experience in Firefox3.

The system I'm using a Macbook pro with 2.4 Ghz, 4GB RAM and Leopard 10.5.3.
