When downloading http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/ias/60/JavaProgGuide/jpgdeplo.htm#11284 it takes ~20s on my PII-233 with 256M via a 512k DSL line with a new profile. When I do a 'normal' reload it takes approx. the same time to display the page. When I do a shift reload however it takes almost 40s. to display this page. Prefs: 4M Memory cache, 50M HD cache, check once-per-session, Disk and memory cache enabled

Per request of waterson@netscape.com tried a smaller but fairly similar page (http://www.abz.nl) with the same results!! normal load: 6.5 sec. reload : 5.2 sec. shift-reload: 9.8 sec.

Please always include build-ID in bug-reports.

Sorry, misled bij queryform. Sorry build# 2001060108, Linux kernel 2.2.16 Results on http://www.abz.nl are the same with or without caching. http://www.mozilla.org does not show these symptoms. (with or without cache) initial load: 2.0 secs. reload : 1.5 secs shift-reload: 1.7 secs

shift-reload pulls from network, bypassing cache. Just reload will pull from cache. Could that account for the difference? Did you clear the cache before the initial page load ("normal load")?

More results all with a complete new profile (so empty cache): http://www.iplanet.com initial: 11.7 secs. reload: 12 secs. shift-reload: 43 secs reload: 12 secs shift-reload: 39 secs. All carried out in this order. I saw in the progressbar that some 'backward' jumps occured. Strange however that with cache enabled the reload (on a page with many small (static?) images) a reload takes the same time as an initial load) Hand-timed NS4.76 results (expected): Load: 12 secs reload: 4 secs shift-reload: 13 secs

Could this be related to the now resolved/fixed bug 73295 (which did not seem to be tested?)

With shift-reload, images which are in the document more than once are loaded from teh server multiple times. Taht page has lots of references to /img/pix.gif , and thats probably why - we'd end up requesting the image > 20-30 times. The shift reload is bug 79020. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79020 ***
