Slow Completion of Rendering

[David E. Ross]

Windows XP Home Edition SP3
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20120615 SeaMonkey/2.10.1
AVG Anti-Virus 2012 (2012.0.2180)
2.66 GHz dual Pentium D processors
Total Physical Memory 1.024 GB (533MHz)

I have noticed that SeaMonky is slow to complete the rendering of many
Web pages.  The pages start to render as quickly as I would expect, but
then there is a Wait or Loading indicated in the status bar without any
activity on my broadband connection.  Sometimes, several minutes elapse
before rendering completes.

I cannot tell if this problem is in SeaMonkey, elsewhere in my PC, in my
Netgear router, in the Motorola cable modem, in RoadRunner, or in the
Web servers.

Among sites affected are the login to my Google account and
addons.mozilla.org.  I do not seem to have this problem at Yahoo sites,
including the login.

Re: SM 2.10.1 using 100% cpu

Ideas?


I'm not going to claim that what follows is a universal cure, or that it even 
addresses the actual problem, but my impression is that trouble starts when SM begins 
spending too much of its time tending its fancy new databases.


In my case, specifically, since



Preferences -> Browser -> History -> Form and Search History -> Remember form and 
search history for up to X days




ceased to have any meaning, my cpu usage also intermittently shot through the roof. 
My maybe-solution was to go to:




Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> When I ask Seamonkey to clear my private data, 
it should erase:




and leave ticked only:

Browsing History
Download History
Offline Website Data
Authenticated Sessions

and then clear the data myself MANUALLY once each week. Otherwise, the browsing 
history will just grow forever.


Your choices of what to delete may differ from mine; browsing history is the 
main one.

Hm, a defect training.dat? You could try by renaming it, but you have to

There is. :)

Under 'Junk Settings' of your account is 'Do not automatically mark mail
as junk if the sender is in'. Below this you can check one or more of
your address books. You can even create a new address book with the name
'Not Junk' for this purpose.

Note also that if your ISP is flagging them as junk (mine does so by 
prefixing "***SPAM***" to the subject) and JMC is trained to honor that 
flag, it'll take a while to untrain JMC. Better to whitelist your 
correspondents at the ISP's website (if possible) or disable their 
marking (if possible).

Why Firefox???

[Daniel]

I dual boot Mandriva Linux and Windows 7 and tonight I'm on my Windows 7 
system and have updated from SM 2.10 to SM 2.10.1


Normally, I have a five site "Home Group", but when I open the browser 
for the first time (SM is set to start up with Mail & Newsgroups and 
Chatzilla screens, only), I had my normal five tabs *plus* an "About 
Firefox" tab. After updating, i would expect to see the SeaMonkey 
changes page, and then have to close that and then re-open the browser 
to get my normal five tab Home group.


Why the six tabs and why the "About Firefox" page rather than the 
SeaMonkey changes page??

Junk Mail Problems

[clis...@charter.net]

I'm using 2.10.1 on XP-SP3 and did not have this problem until version
2.10.1.

I get search results daily from a few sites.  Each day almost all are
tagged as Junk.  I have 'Enable adaptive junk mail controls for this
account' checked.  Each day I re-tag these messages as Not Junk, but
the next day they show as Junk.

How can I get these notes to not be tagged as Junk?

A suggestion to developers: how about something where a sender, or a
subject, could be set up as Not Junk, in a similar way to the message
filters.

Thank you for any help on this.

Re: Cursor Position After Launching a New Tab

Or by Preferences->Browser->Tabbed Browsing
[x] Switch to new tabs opened from links

Not mine, but i have now set it.

Have done so.

That is what happens on my SM 2.13a1 and what i would expect...

>or where I middle-clicked (where in the view window the last mouse

...why should middle-clicking set a new position for searching? After
opening the new tab with the middle-click 'rancho' is still selected and
a new search should start there.
