konqueror is very slow


hi,

i am running slackware on a p 4 1.3 ghz with 256 mb ram. 64 MB nvidia geforce 4 vedio card.

My problem is that, when brosing the web with konqueror, it is very slow.. ie konqueror takes a long time to load a page when compared to firefox (i guess this is expected ), but konqueror seems to run slower than mozilla also.

it takes a long time to load a page and when it does load the page, it fails to show some of the pictures

is there any optomizations that i need to do to impove the web browsing performance of Konqueor?

Thank you.

KDE 3.3.X?

Code:
export KDE_NO_IPV6=1
For some odd reason kde 3.3 uses ipv6 by default, if your DNS server doesn't support it it will slow things down badly...

Put it in some startup script somewhere. :-)

Steve.
