It _feels_ (admittedly very subjective) a little faster than firefox on loading and operating with my 3.0GHz Intel box running b40, the difference might be more obvious on slower systems.
The problem you described sounds like a file descriptor leak. You may want to report it here: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=3 I start using it more on my T41 w/ Windows XP. It has some appealing features, but I have also run into some compatibility issues on some websites. For example, composing emails in Gmail has some issues. Nevertheless I am pleasantly surprised they released a version for Solaris, so kudos to Opera. Tao -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
