I was impressed by the startup speed.Also the new version has tracemonkey a JIT for Javascript and it is quite fast.If you want to try it out and at the same time don't want to wipe up your existing firefox install you can run the latest version without installing it by downloading a portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/test
Most of my extensions stopped working so had to use the Nightly Tester Tools 2.0.2 . With this extension you can make all your extensions compatible, though you might run into issues as these extensions have not been certified to work.Anyways you can always disable it if you run into issues.

If you have an extension called Prism for Firefox 0.2.1 from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6665 then you will need to disable it otherwise everytime you download something it will crash your firefox.
Till now all my extensions except the Prism extensions are working fine.
