156954 - Pop-up menu on images takes long time to appear

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 115818

(Core :: Graphics: Image Blocking, defect)

Description

[Peter Weilbacher]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020529
BuildID:    2002052918

The right-click pop-up menu on images takes very long to display most of the
time. An example is given on the above URL. In Netscape and Galeon the menu
appears almost instantaneously, while in Mozilla it takes several seconds. My
machine (Dual PPro 200 with 128 MB RAM) is on the lower end of the Mozilla
requirements and here it takes 4-5 seconds for the pop-up to appear. But this
difference is also noticeable on a AMD 800 with 128 MB RAM (1-2 seconds).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the top of the Bugzilla Helper page
2. Right click on the left (colored) part of the banner

Actual Results:  Wait long for the pop-up to appear

Expected Results:  Pop-up should appear nearly instantaneous

Pop-up indeed appears instantaneous on the "middle" part of the banner (where it
says mozilla.org, which is a link to the main page). This is one of the rare
time I have seen the pop-up appear fast. On the other hand it takes long on the
banner of http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.0/, whereever I click on the
image part of the banner.

Also, this seems to be related to the use of the "Block images from this server"
feature, therefore I select the image blocking component. My colleague does not
use that feature at all, but I have a number of entries in this list.
