When I first start it and go to a few web pages, it runs fast, but after a while, it bogs down. I am a programmer. I ran Sampler on it. It is taking all its time in  plugin servicing. This slow behavoir keeps up even when I close all windows cept 1 and have just plain html in that one window.

Here is the stack...

Which plugins were on the page? If the page contained a lot of Flash, this is a known bug and is covered in (many) other bugs.

If it was Java, it'd be worth having smichaud look at it.

Can you direct us to which page (or pages) were causing this?
