Nov 24 build, raptor demo 1. Launch xpviewer on NT or win95 machine, go to http://grok, and observe page layout and especially time to do so.... • Takes forever to layout just any ftp page. Format is wrong as well but filed as separate bug. Non ftp pages scream in comparison, and NOVA of course screams as well. Need to fix for demo I believe. Also noted virtual memory resources are completely sucked away and grok would not run autoload sequence. Will file as separate bug, and if it is a dupe we can just mark it as such, but I want the bases covered.

There is no way we can fix this for the developer release. It requires too many changes to resolve. I have it *partially* fixed in my tree, but it is still painfully slow (better than before). I've removed the ss: tag, but left the bug alive.
I'm reassigning this to rickg for now: there is a parser bug on this page. Try this simple test to see it in action. The parser is closing PRE sections when it sees an HR. Bad bad parser... :-) --CUT HERE-- <HTML> <BODY> <PRE> This is some pre text <hr> This should be in the pre too! </PRE> </BODY> </HTML> --CUT HERE--
Putting on rn: radar.

glynn, please check against latest Viewer build. Reopen if still slow.
Ok it looks fixed in Jan 19 build, in terms that initial ftp page layout is much speedier than it was, but me thinks more work as mentioned below is to be done. Will file new bugs for other items. Verified on Win98.
