After a recent cvsup (in which I noticed a lot of changes to the malloc routines - which may or may not be related), netscape is now taking AGES to start up - it just sits there for 5 minutes or more chewing up CPU but doing nothing. Sometimes it eventually starts, after which it seems to work fine - but other times I can just leave it seemingly indefintelty and it never starts, or starts but doesnt actually load any webpages, just sits there looking stupid. This is with both the 3.0 linux port, as well as both versions (fbsd and linux) of 4.03. Both worked reasonably (apart from regular crashes which I suspect are still due to java implementation) under 2.2-stable and for the first couple of days I was running current. Any ideas? Kris
