(Core :: SVG, defect)

Description

[Duncan Loveday]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2007121905 Minefield/3.0b3pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2007121905 Minefield/3.0b3pre

The same files take noticeably longer to load when they are loaded locally than when loaded over HTTP.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save the attached files as test.html and test.svg in the same directory.
2. Use File->Open File... to open file test.html
3. Compare the performance numbers with those from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=258652 in bug 374037. This loads the same content.
Actual Results:  
My results are

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=258652 1.47, 2.07, 4.33, 0.67
File->Open File...->test.html                         1.37, 4.31, 7.38, 0.76

The middle two are consistently slower - these are SVG rectangles and text elements.

Expected Results:  
I would have expected similar performance for the same content.
