i haven't played with it much, but one gripe i have: the ammount of memory
it's using! perhaps the reason it is faster is because it uses twice as
much memory as ie5. doing a quick test on win2k, netscape quickly cranked
up to over 20MB in use (on a system w/ 96mb), while ie5 remained just over
10 (still sucking it down, i know). and this was just general browsing,
nothing too intense. and as I write this message, IE slowly releases some,
it's back down around 6mb now, while netscape maintains it's strangle
hold....
granted, it's a beta release - i'll give em a break for now.
aaron :)
p.s. as I finish this message, ie has quieted down to less than 1mb in use.
