Linux, RH 6.1, gnome, sawmill, no patches for 6.1 (yet, :[ )

Just going to the URL causes a VERY long screen draw time. It didn't feel like
35 seconds, but I'm submitting the bug because everything else was so fast.

Going back to the page (when it should be cached) doesn't help.
Going back to the page as the first browse (exit, re-run moz) doesn't help.

----------------------------------------------
Possibly second bug, I think its the same thing: TELL ME, and I will submit
a separate bug.

When finally on the query.cgi page, down in the control labeled "Program" if you
click on "browser", you get to see a BUNCH of redrawing of the controls on the
right. I looked at the source for the page and do not grok javascript. At a
guess, I'd say the javascript changes what controls are there fro a given
"Program", and that code is causing a major slow down.
