Has anyone tried Firefox 3.5? It's still in beta, but is supposed to have a much better response time. Just curious :) --- Nicole C.

This was covered on the list a while back -- in Firefox it was taking 40-50 s on our staff clients to save records.
I don't believe a diagnosis or fix were ever found for the Firefox issue.
It's not a Firefox issue per se, it's a JavaScript issue. When you save a MARC record Koha uses JavaScript to validate all the fields in the entry form--usually a lot of them! That takes time, and makes the browser appear unresponsive while it's processing. Chrome will be faster than Firefox 3 because its JavaScript parser is faster. But Firefox will be faster than Internet Explorer.
So the solution isn't a browser-specific fix, but a general one of optimization.
