Details
Go to the specified URL in MSIE. Then cf. Mozilla. [Reload a few times.]
The paint of the black background is instant in MSIE, but is incremental in Mozilla.
Things like this make Mozilla *seem* really slow, and as a result this is a bad
bug, because it makes people say 'ugh this is slow', even if the total time to
load is less - MSIE's instant paint gives a snappy feel, which Mozilla lacks.

Seems scarily quick to me, but then I have a PIII 450 and 256Mb RAM...
Oh, and I have a bone to pick with you about your Mozilla CSS compliance tests
being out of date :-) Expect a mail at some point... ;-)

I think this is something that happens online only (i.e. because some major bug
in Windows 2k is really screwing my connection to our T1 and so pages download
really slowly). It might be that instead of
on <body bgcolor>:
paint canvas
it doesn't do the paint until it gets more content.
Will try confirming with slow vs. fast connections.

http://www.slashdot.org Mozilla win32 trunk build 102708 seems to me to be
considerably faster than IE 5.5 and Nav 4.7 on my NT box.

marking worksforme using the 2000110304 trunk build on win2k. Mozilla is
rendering the black background faster than ie5.5 on my win2k machine.

connection. Marking verified.
