It tends to handle flash video (google video) better. I currently have native opera. It just takes a few second longer to see the flash video. It does not bother me...but it may bother others. Try both ( one at a time ) and see the difference for yourself. note: I don't use KDE...don't know if that might make a difference in resource loads. -- Alexander FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE i386
