Inter Explorer's one is a lot of faster. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

I can confirm this on a PII 400, 256MB. It's usable but it is noticably slow.

Too slow in what way? To load? to scroll through? expanding folders? Details please... (I'm assuming by 'sidemark' you mean sidebar?)

Yes, i mean sidebar :) Its slow to scroll and to expand folders.

Your user string identifies the OS as Linux and you've listed the OS as Linux, but you say in the comments that the problem is in Windows? Do you have the problem in both? Please try to keep things a little clearer in the future ;) Compared to Mozilla's Sidebar Phoenix's Bookmarks Sidebar is slow; it "hesitates" would be the best way to describe it, both for scrolling and for expanding folders. Intriguingly, scrolling through and expanding folders in the History Sidebar is just fine as everything is instantaneous. So this should be doable for the bookmarks sidebar... -->All OS -->Tweaking summary -->Confirming for developer review

I'm sorry if i cannot express myself better in English, but my first language is Spanish. The problem is on my mother's computer. She runs Win2k on the mentioned computer. I don't have the same problem on the other computers, a Duron750 w/ Linux (from which the bug was reported) and a P3-1Ghz laptop w/ Linux & WXP. But history sidebar is still noticeably faster on all of them.

bookmarks have accumulated a lot of regression concerning in december. Two of them have been fixed and the last one (bug 182842) will be fixed soon. Grab a nightly and compare! There's already a huge win! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 176370 ***

I don't entirely see how this is a dupe of bug 176370, but I do agree that the performance of the sidebar, both scrolling and expanding folders, has improved considerably since the time I confirmed this bug.
