Want to squeeze a little extra performance out of Firefox 4 on your Windows machine? Take a look at the 
builds from Binary Turf, which are optimized for Windows -- and now available in a glorious 64-bit version. I've been running their Firefox 4.0b7 remix all morning, and it definitely feels a bit faster than the current nightly from Mozilla. That could certainly be the placebo effect at work, but a quick run through the usual Web benchmarks (
Sunspider, 
V8) 
did show modest gains. 
 If you decide to take a "blazing fast" build for a test drive, you might also want to install the 64-bit Flash plug-in. Firefox's internal plug-in finder won't be able to locate it, so 
download Flash Square 64-bit manually before you start browsing.
