I used a 2 GHz Intel processor, and got a delay of around a second
every time I opened a new browser window in pharo-dev 0.1. (I used
the OB clones of the standard browsers - not any of the new browsers
or undocumented new features. Also, I don't know if other images
perform better.)
To satisfy my curiosity, could someone point me to the results of any
code profiling done on this issue?
