Do the changes in the spinning icon in your tab mean anything when connecting? It is grey and spinning counterclockwise then it changes to green and spins clockwise.

When connecting to a site the tab has a spinning icon. It is grey and it spins counter-clockwise. Then it changes color to green and spins clockwise. Does this mean anything (possibly transferring data or data done). If so, what triggers the change. This is not a problem I am just interested in this behavior.

Counter clockwise means that Firefox is trying to connect to the server and is waiting for the server to respond to that request.
