My intention asking if other people see slow scrolling with
www.macslash.org (as compared, to, say, www.slashdot.org) is to know if
there is something intrinsic to that site that every Debian/Linux user
sees.

Only after we have stablished that is that we should be looking at how the
alternatives (Konqueror, Opera, whatever) deal with that site.

Again, the curious fact is that, under the very same machine, Firefox in
Linux is way too slow to scroll that site (again, for example, when you
have a page with many comments), while the same version of Firefox in
Windows 2k is quite fast.

Quite puzzling.
