A grumpy user's browser reviewA grumpy user's browser reviewPosted Feb 11, 2004 20:20 UTC (Wed) by tjc (guest, #137)In reply to: A grumpy user's browser review by ballombe Parent article: A grumpy user's browser review Typing "apt-get install konqueror" was enough to deter me. Man that's a lot of stuff! Konqueror is excellent. I think the KDE project really ought to consider disentangling it from the rest of KDE so that it enjoys more widespread use.

My konqueror, on a 2000 athlon took 3 seconds. I think I'll put up with the rest of KDE (which is quite good BTW) to enjoy these speeds. Derek

You have no idea what kind of system he has, how much memory, his internet access methods, etc. etc. For it to be informative you have to perform all the timing tests on the same system.
A grumpy user's browser review Posted Feb 11, 2004 23:10 UTC (Wed) by tjc (guest, #137) [Link] My konqueror, on a 2000 athlon took 3 seconds.Reboot and try again. Firefox takes ~11 seconds to start the first time on my system, and about 3 seconds on subsequent restarts in the same session.

A grumpy user's browser review Posted Feb 12, 2004 7:15 UTC (Thu) by aleXXX (subscriber, #2742) [Link] While this is seems like a good idea, it would be *very* hard to realize.Basically konqueror is *the* integral application of kde, relying very heavily on the features provided by the framework. Konqy alone almost can't do anything, neither accessing local or remote file, neither displaying anything, almost everything is done by using the framework. Bye Alex
