180 seconds in my case (probably configurable somewhere).

I can replicate this problem to order. I open a window on NetSurf 
which loads my local home page, http://localhost/ 
(internet.websites.index/html), from WebJames.

I then click on a link for the local copy of one of my sites:
<a href=mmorguk/index.html> which expands to 
http://localhost/mmorguk/index.html .
this page contains one stylesheet link:
<link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> .
The file internet.websites.mmorguk.css.style/css does exist.

Netsurf sits there clocking up the time for 180s during which time I 
can do nothing else on the desktop. It shows 3/4 stylesheets loaded. 
After 180s the requested page then appears but without any of the 
stylesheet information. NB the WebJames time-out is set to 200s.

Requesting exactly the same page on Oregano 1 delivers the page 
immediately with all the style information.

If I request a local web site that doesn't use stylesheets there isn't 
any delay using NetSurf.
