DUring the last 2 years i have been running Mozilla and firebird and each
version i have downloaded(about 1 a week) ahd this problem. I thought i would be
fixed but now im gettng a little tired of it. I have recommended mozilla to
several people and they like it but they hate it when mozilla starts trashing
the harddrive for up to 30 seconds when it has been minimized.
This happens even when i have 500 MB of free memory.
The maximization process goes a little bit faster on a machine with
SCSI-harddrive wich lends me to belive it is some problem with a lot of files
beeing reloaded but it takes so much longer than starting mozilla that i cannot
understand what is the cause.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla or firebird.
2. Minimize it.
3. start another application and leav it for a minute or two.
4. MAximize mozilla and looka at the harddrive LED.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla is dog slow maximizing and redrawing. after a while you can begin to use
mozilla but everything takes very long. and a while later mozilla is up to
normal sped.

Expected Results:  
It should have happened in no time at all.
