IIRC it took minutes to display even the Google homepage when this was initially enabled. I'm happy to report it is not having any perceivable impact on performance at all now.

It is visibly working on the NetSurf homepage however - except for the Wakefield show link, where I think the initial URL isn't being remembered by NetSurf, as the link redirects immediately to http://www.wakefieldshow.org.uk/index.php Chris
