Note also: Firefox may be treated specially because of the Bookmarks
menu.  This can contain thousands of items (seriously - if you use tags
and ctrl+d, you're going to leave everything in the "bookmarks menu"
folder).

I suspect the correct solution is to make sure it's only the Bookmark
menu that is populated on-demand; all the other menus should be
populated "eagerly", i.e. ahead of time.

Title:
  Firefox menu bar under Unity(2D) is too slow for my fingers (on
  Core2!)

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open firefox.
  2. Press Alt + V + Y + N, in quick succession.

  Expected behavior:
  The menu item View -> Page Style -> No Style is activated; CSS stylesheets are disabled, and the menu disappears.

  Actual behavior:
  My keyboarding gets ahead of the menu.  First time, I'm left with the View menu open.  Second time, I'm left with the Page Style menu open.  On the third time, all the menus are cached & it works fine.
