Hi Hussein,

We're seeing something odd with our largest docbook files. These files are 
around 1.8 megs of text, and include references to well over 300 SVG graphics.

Opening the document takes quite a while, as is understandable, but users are 
accustomed to going away to get a cup of coffee or something while the document 
loads.

However, when the document first loads and the top of it is rendered on the 
screen, if the user attempts to scroll down immediately instead of giving it a 
minute more to finish rendering, the application locks and must be restarted. 
Processor activity drops off to zero, memory allocation activity drops off to 
zero; nothing is happening, it's just locked up tight.

Whatever XMLmind is doing to render onscreen, it's displaying content before 
the document is actually ready. It would be nice if it just waited until the 
document was actually fully loaded before tempting the user into behavior that 
will ultimately bring them to my desk complaining.

Cheers,
Jeff.
