I installed it a while back for checking my page layouts and just decided to use it some for browsing. It seems to use fewer resources and load faster than FF, especially noticeable on places like the painfully slow MHA forums.
Hopefully there are some nifty extensions for it like there is for FF.
Mac or Windows? I'm assuming Windows here.
Firefox does have some issues with "memory bloat"; it tends to keep quite a bit in RAM. I use it because I love the customizability and know how to tweak it (there are ways to disable prefetching and other stuff).
On script heavy sites, Firefox tends to choke a bit.
What do you mean "slow"; do you get "scripts are not responding" messages?
Safari is one of the better OSX browsers; for Windows, I'd say either
Opera or Firefox. Opera lacks some of the customizability of FF but is a solid browser with extremely quick page loading, it has a BT client built in (if you want to use the download manager), mouse gestures, etc.
The great thing about Opera is it's not invasive with the extra features; you can use them, or not (and they don't get in the way).
