Hi list,
As you've surely understood from my last emails, I've just installed
to X.org 7.2 :-).
The main reason I run X is to surf the web, thus I installed
www/firefox. It works, but very, very slowly. I've managed to
get strace output, it is available here (you can view it directly
from your web browser):
http://tataz.chchile.org/~tataz/strace/strace.firefox.gz
As you can notice, there are a _great_ number of syscall 454:
% jarjarbinks:tmp$ grep -c syscall_454 strace.firefox
% 26664
I don't know if it is related or not though, since top(1) shows that
firefox-bin is pretty peaceful:
% last pid: 8840; load averages: 0.56, 0.28, 0.25 up 8+15:46:26 00:16:23

Any help would be welcome.
Thank you.
