Firefox on Mac tends to be about three  to five times slower on complex
Javascript tasks than Firefox on Windows. That said, I have no problem
loading http://69.59.158.10/openlayers/ on my mac, and the code is
far simpler than many of the more complex Javascript tasks I've
performed on OpenLayers, none of which lead to problems with the
'unresponsive script' warning. I'd say that your coworker may want to
look into his plugins, etc. to see what else might be causing his
problem.
