Mozilla has released a new browser called "Minefield" and it's supposed to give you the fastest browsing experience possible. Minefield is basically Firefox but it's armed with the fasted javascript engine on the market, hence the fast browsing.
Minefield is still in Alpha version but it's stable enough to be used and it won't mess up your current Firefox installation. You can download it here but since it's in Alpha, you'll have to keep in mind that a bunch of your extensions won't work.
We gave Minefield a test drive and it is faster than Firefox and Chrome, but not having our regular extensions is a big annoyance. We won't be switching to Minefield yet obviously but it's an interesting look at what Firefox can become in the future when loaded with such a fast javascript engine.
