I'm running stable with some stuff off backports.org, like Firefox and Thunderbird. I can't pin down exactly what caused the problem, I've installed karm and flashplayer-nonfree lately too, I've removed flashplayer and that hasn't fixed the problem. Now some web pages download really slowly - including www.debian.org! The behavior goes something like this: I browse to that address and Firefox (or Mozilla or Evolution, they all behave the same way for a given web site, hence I suspect a library problem) contacts the server, and starts transferring data, and displays the page incrementally in teeny-tiny bits, about one graphic per second and up to 10 (wow, 10!) words a second. Slowly, slowly the web page will be displayed (rendered?) and eventually I'll get the page. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions that I can try to fix this? Am I on the right track?
