Re: Konqueror and NY Times sluggish KDE 3.0 to 3.1 Beta 2



I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you, but I too experience sluggish
browsing on certain sites.  Most noticably with www.tsn.ca and
www.nhl.com (check out the left panel on that page, it's hideous!).  I
have no idea what causes it but since I'm using 3.0.4 I figured it'd be
fixed in 3.1...
