jQuery 1.3b2 selector engine *much* slower than 1.3b1 (FF 3.0.5)

Description

This bug is only found under Firefox 3.0.5. FF 3.1 / Safari 3 work fine.

There is an extremely noticeable difference in jQuery's selector engine running FF 3.0.5. Calling jQuery takes up to 12x (!) the time between the two versions. I've set up a test case for you to view. The test uses Firebug to log the time:

I really can't confirm this - I keep trying but can't reproduce the massive 10x spike shown here.

Just FYI - this test ends up testing a lot more than just selectors - it also tests the performance of .hide() and .show().
