Firefox Beta just got Opera-level responsive for me on Android and no rendering issues so far.

I haven't tried Firefox in a coupled of months, but to me Firefox rendering was the worst out of all the top browsers. I think Firefox does something on purpose that makes rendering worse, such as delaying it somehow in order to increase performance or whatever. So for example you won't get the whole page rendered immediately, and if you switch to a different part of the page, you have to wait for it to get rendered, too. I don't like that much.
