Well, on this one it's a harddrive. But! everything except /home is directly on the harddrive. But /home is a encrypted softraid disk of a partition of the real harddrive. I do have softdep on that partition. That may be the cause. But since, on my desktop I have exactly the same setup, it also should be slow on the desktop. Maybee missing some raw cpu power. I do get a strange bug where the tab freezes or kinda desynchronizes (the view of the page doesn't move even if I browse the page). Reloading the tab fixes the problem sometimes with more or less time. I do get it less frequently with the new version. As for the proxy, it works with `--proxy-server=XXX` only if the auth isn't in the XXX. It will then ask me for authentification when I load a page. But doesn't work either way (with or without authentification) in the env (http_proxy & ftp_proxy). -- Vincent Auclair - auclair.vincent[ at ]gmail.com (+33) 6 80 77 59 67
