Ok, in the meantime I have installed a -current kernel, ie 1.35 on
a machine here, and a netscape as well (ports/www/netscape4-communicator),
and running it to a remote X server I see no ill effects, it runs
as well as I've ever seen it on a i486 cpu.

So what exactly is the problem you're seing (any URLs I should try ?)

Does "top" show any weird behaviour ?

Does "systat :vm" show abnormally many syscalls ?

Does ktrace on your netscape show anything weird ?

Could it maybe be the Xserver which is having the trouble, not the
netscape process ?
