Well, that was it on the performance (typing latency). Still I find this very disturbing that I cannot alter some settings and "de_tune" javascript in browser windows that are not active? I had to diable javascript, terminate (with save) and start up seamonkey again. Obviously, there are too many things I need that use javascript, so I re-enabled javascript and terminated (a second time, with a save) the seamonkey application and start it again (now again with javascript enabled). So the problem is gone; I have seamonkey with tabs aplenty and javascript enabled again. Why can't I achieve this without manual intervention? It's not that I'm doubting what you are saying, it just seems "dumb" that I cannot have auto_mastery on javascript tabs that are not active. Maybe a browser plug-in? Maybe a bug/feature request to the mozilla devs? Really? curiously, James
