On Cnet it said that it is very fast.
Full Version: Firefox Minefield
It's the Pre alpha version of Firefox 4.
The only reason it is so fast is that it is completely striped down.

you can enable TraceMonkey in Minefield by going to about:config and setting javascript.options.jit.content to true.
Interesting... but if this is pre alpha then i think i'll just wait. Anyway, back to reading my book about CSS...
Pre-Alpha == NO THANKS!

I love betas and alphas and all that jazz. I might download it if I have time. Any noticeble differences yet? Apart from the javascript?

Then you must really love Google.
I just downloaded it and am trying it out,
CNET was right, it is very fast and it has a very nice layout, it also has a few bugs though,
mainly just freezing errors, so here is a frame of when it froze while I was writing this.
Every "-" equals ten seconds
Firefox 'Ftw'

I love stripped down browsers. My ultimate one would be just a window with an address bar and maybe some tools like popup blocker but that's it. 
I like it very much for a browser that is even pre-Alpha. I can't wait to see the Beta version get released, and eventually the full version. It's just exciting, I can't wait to see the new, blazing speed affect my browsing 24/7 when it gets its full release.
I've been using it for some time now.
I'll run a js test next to chrome:

Is it just me or does it not have a back button?

Just you. Perhaps you disabled it?
