Subject:   Firefox hanging problem

Hi,

Firefox seems to be hanging for a period of time before working again. 
When I start it up it initially loads the tabs I had open previously (I 
use the session-saver extension) and before the pages load it then just 
totally locks up for around a minute.  I ktrace'd it to see what it was 
up to and I found a whole bunch of calls to gettimeofday.  Not sure what 
the time has to do with loading websites.  Anyone have any ideas?

Chris

Attached ktrace output.
