Really? Mozilla seems to fly due to it's more efficient display
engine and threading; I'll wait till the debugging code is removed
and the optimizations inserted before passing judgement on it's 20%
memory consumption. Netscape 4.73 eats up about 7% of my 128MB of
RAM for every open window, which can add up quickly; also, it's
fingertapping-slow.
