FWIW on this virtual RPC with JavaScript and css running the
download/render process takes c10.5 seconds.

I just tried it with CI#3254 on an Iyonix.  Took about 24 sec.

If you're not on a very recent CI build, I would recommend you get
one.  Very slow rendering was fixed a couple of months ago.

This morning and with build 3252 it works as expected. Odd.

Thanks for checking.

I find it useful to refer to punctuation using their HTML entities (when
the recipient has half a chance of understanding) but there's no telling
how  will be treated between my fingers and your eyes. I've heard <

Thank you, Tim. I knew that they had to have 'proper' nomenclature.

The angle brackets I'm mostly used to were usually made from 3/8in mild
steel, or thereabouts.

Very slow page rendering

2016-01-09 Thread Peter Slegg

http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/tree/atari/gemtk/guiwin.c

This page takes abut 20mins to download and render, Highwire browser
takes about 6sec.

I think the difference is that Highwire doesn't handle the css
so maybe there could be some performance gains to be had in
either downloading or the css handling ?

About 43s here on RPC with standard ADSL connection. CI#3250. Firefox 
on the macbook pro takes 2s over the same connection.

I am using a build from today and I know it is never going to be
lighting quick on an M68060 but my point is that the speed seems
unduly slow over an adsl link that normally downloads at 350k/s.

I have reported before that Netsurf on the Atari seems slow at
downloading pages so it might just be an issue with how Netsurf is
using the OS ?  It's not my area of expertise.

Is it because there are a lot of files ?
Is it a cache issue ?

Long delays can often be observed on other pages. The git url is
a useful test case because it is fairly stable and repeatable.

No criticism, I am hoping this might help the devs find some speed
improvements.

Regards,

Peter

Takes 34.9 seconds on this SA RPC using Netsurf 3.3.  Tried it on Windows
box on Firefox and it loaded in less than a couple of seconds.  Display on
both Firefox and Netsurf seemed essentially the same - just a heading and
then a page of 1430 numbered lines of code.  Is that what it is supposed to
look like?  Doesn't seem to be much rendering going on!

About 4 seconds here, ARMX6 and NS 3254

But our internet is very variable: when lots of households are on line, it
can be slow!
