I run a proxy server (squid on Solaris 8 box, non-authenticated) at
work here and Safari runs at normal speed whether proxy setting is
manual or automatic.

Anyone know why browsing using Safari and the 'Automatic Proxy
Configuration' setting yields significantly slower web access than a
copy of Firefox or Mozilla (with the same proxy settings) ?
I recently had to change to the automatic proxy setting here at work
(Fairly old Windows 2000 box acting as the proxy server I believe) -
access in safari has been, well, crap ... ever since.
I'd just move to FFx or Moz, except wysiwyg HTML authoring apps like
'Edit On Pro' (Realobjects) only support Safari under OSX.
Cheers,
Tobes.
