thanks for responding. the time required to render the client, unfortunately, far exceeds the time required to connect.
in more detail: on relatively comparable hardware, using Dapper's GAIM, I can log into the exact same 4 accounts in just under 18 seconds. on Edgy, as you can see from the attached screenshot - log in times to the GAIM client are exceeding 6 and a half minutes. ** Attachment added: "screenshot of GAIM performance problem" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4903859/Gaim_Slow.png -- Gaim 2.0 unusably slow in Edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/67195 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
