Subject: Bug#25566: konquerer slows down when loading
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kfm-devel&m=98955212611902

Package: khtml
Version: 3.0 (using KDE 2.1.1 )
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Red Hat Linux 6.9.2
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-78)
OS:                Linux 2.4.2-0.1.36smp i686
OS/Compiler notes: 

I'm sure that you folks are already aware of this, but I just wanted to mention it just in case, as it's the only thing left that (for me) keeps Konquerer from being about 1000x better than Netscape 4.77.

Quite simply, any time a page is loading in one of my Konquerer windows, all the other ones slow down pretty seriously.  Since I'm a big fan of "power browsing" - that is, using middle click to open up a whole bunch of windows at once and minimizing each one as it opens - this is something that strikes me all the time.  By about the 10th window Konquerer is running at a crawl.

I've got a T1 all to myself, so bandwidth isn't the problem.  I've experienced this both on my Athalon 700 w/ 384 megs of RAM, Red Hat 7.0 and kernel 2.4.0, as well as my K6-3/400 w/ 256 megs of RAM, Red Hat 6.2, and kernel 2.2.17.

Thanks!
