 * Hey guys i just made the upgrade process and i found that to create a new post
   using Firefox is very very slow, after access to post_new.php the web browser
   is soooo slow to scroll on the page. The same for edit a previous post.
    I tried
   on Safari too, and there appear to have and endless loading elements, in the 
   status bar appear “loading 25 elements from 250” “loading 35 from 450” and it
   continue doing the same, the elements number just grow and grow and grow, if 
   i tried to access to publish a picture it just never load. Anyone out there have
   seen this behavior? I disabled all the plugins just to check if theres a conflict,
   but even without plugins the problem still there.

 * I downloaded the zip file directly to my server and unziped it into a temporary
   folder, deleted all the relevant directories and copied them from the temporary
   folder.
 * Issue still occuring.

 * Damn, what a nuissance! I have tried every single option from above, I’ve deleted
   the whole WP admin section (admin, includes folders, etc.) and reuploaded them,
   I’ve tried to enlarge the number in that auto file and in the end, I could only
   manage to get things to work with that disable autosave plugin…
    What I don’t
   understand is that I only had this in one of six WP installations, all on the
   same server, all with the same plugins (almost), all with the same settings, 
   theme, etc. Hopefully someone will find the cause, I only managed to patch.

 * I fixed the problem by backing up my wp-content folder, and doing a clean install
   of WP and then reuploading wp-content. I know that probably sounds like a pain
   for a lot of you, but something in my functions file in my theme was causing 
   the problem. Just an idea.

 * Oh, and by the way, I noticed another thread earlier today that said Mozilla’s
   FTP Filezilla didn’t upload all of the WP 2.5.1 files for some reason. I used
   Core and I didn’t have any trouble. That may be it too.

 * I was having the same problem and tried all of the suggestions above. What finally
   fixed it was database fix from this thread:
 * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/168011](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/168011)
 * It looks like there were bad entries in the database from when I imported my 
   xml file (months ago) and the problem just got much worse with the new version(
   I suspect a bigger java footprint). Now it runs faster than it has since I moved
   to my new host.
 * I think it must be a bug in the wordpress import (or the wordpress.com export)

 * unfortunately, I am at a place with WordPress at this point where none of these
   fixes have worked. Has WP addressed this issue? I am at the point where I will
   have to find a different solution for my site.
