[newbie] scrolling in mozilla/firebird eats up cpu
Scrolling up/down a lengthy web page in Mozilla quickly eats up my cpu usage. Running top I see that it's both Mozilla and X (moreso X) that's utilizing the cpu. The machine becomes somewhat sluggish with this, which is why I've been using dillo. Anyway, now that I'm trying to figure out why, anybody else experience this or know of a remedy (besides upgrading)? k6-2 @ 500MHz, 384MB RAM, crappy ATI video card, incorrectly id'd as a Rage XL AGP. I believe it's an Xpert 98 with a whopping 8MB of powerful memory and ATI RAGE graphics technology.
