It's a javascript chess viewer.

When I click through the moves on the right hand pane using the mouse, initially it is fast, but after some minutes of playing through the moves, it takes a long time (several seconds) to go to the next move I've clicked on.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.click through some moves
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Initially any move you click on displays quickly. After some time, the move you clicked on takes a long time to display.


Expected Results:  
It should fairly quickly display.

I don't see any slow down using Firefox 2.0.0.3 on Windows XP SP 2. Can you reproduce the slow down with a new profile?

I don't have windows 98 anymore, and don't see this problem anymore with ff3α.
