I've recently upgraded to -current, and for the first few days everything 
worked great. After a recent cvsup (in which I noticed a lot of changes to 
the malloc routines - which may or may not be related), netscape is now 
taking AGES to start up - it just sits there for 5 minutes or more 
chewing up CPU but doing nothing. 

Sometimes it eventually starts, after which it seems to work fine - but 
other times I can just leave it seemingly indefintelty and it never 
starts, or starts but doesnt actually load any webpages, just sits there 
looking stupid.

This is with both the 3.0 linux port, as well as both versions (fbsd and 
linux) of 4.03. Both worked reasonably (apart from regular crashes which 
I suspect are still due to java implementation) under 2.2-stable and for 
the first couple of days I was running current.

Any ideas?

Kris
