Line scrolling is very slow on Windows, too. Chris, this looks like the slow painting problem you and I discussed.

Although table painting can use some improvements, on WinNT scrolling the url is not that bad. Kevin, if Linux is much slower relative to WinNT, then maybe you should take a look.

With the latest build 5/28/2000 on Linux it scroll's pretty fast. Faster than 4.x at least. It slows down a little when animated gif's are scrolled into view. The animated gif's are run off system timers which are firing too rapidly on Linux and is covered by a separate bug 34871. Marking as Fixed.

I'm reopening this because there are unnecessary reflows occuring due to the animated gifs. After loading the page (and having the browser window not overlap the debugger) and setting a breakpoint in nsPresShell::AppendReflowCommand, I noticed that reflow commands are constantly getting appended. Buster says that this is a regression and suggests giving the bug to Waqar since it involves the image frame.

This bug has been marked "future" because the original netscape engineer working on this is over-burdened. If you feel this is an error, that you or another known resource will be working on this bug,or if it blocks your work in some way -- please attach your concern to the bug for reconsideration.
This was fixed by the GTK timer checkin.
