Build 1.2b (though this also happened with 1.2a). The Mozilla splash screen appears for 2 minutes before the first browser window opens. After that new windows open fine, until I close Mozilla. I am using Warp 4 (4.50), Fixpak 15 on a computer with an AMD500 processor and 512MB RAM. (Netscape 4.61 for OS/2 opens OK.)

Do you mean that mozilla is slow on your system or is mozilla1.0 or 1.1 faster ?

>I only tried Mozilla 1.2a and 1.2b. Neither of them is slow after they open, but >they take 2 minutes to open the >first browser window. The Mozilla splash screen is nice to look at, but not for >2 minutes This would make it invalid as general performance bug. But 2 minutes seem to be very slow for a 500Mhz system.

Can you please post on the newsgroup, I don't think anyone else is seeing performance this bad. Are you network connected when you start? Also, the VERY first start of Mozilla takes longer than the register. It registers chrome and components.

Did you time using a stopwatch? A lot of socket 7 motherboards won't cache 512 MB of RAM. I've seen a 1/3 performance penalty removed by backing down from 512 to 256 on a K6/2 on MVP3 chipset. If you want to continue with 512, check into upgrading the CPU to K6/3.

Other people aren't seeing this issue and lack of response. For this kind of issue, PLEASE don't open a bugzilla bug. Start in the newsgroups to get some other people's opinions.

I did a total reformat/reinstall of OS2 with the latest fix paks and everything works fine.
