WorksForMe using Mac/2002083017/9.2.2. I don't see a watch cursor when viewing that URL.

Attachment: Hard copy of the cursor

Because my mac is not very fast, i have enough time to make a hard copy

This occurs mainly when i enlarge the window. Visibly a cpu problem.

Shrinking the window helps. Is see only a little blink. I think that it is normal 
on a Mac.
But one time i got the Watch Cursor permanently on a small window.

Is there some automatic and general routine for the cursor, that set the cursor 
to watch when the operation is too long ?
