Curious. This sounds like a web browser issue - I can pull it up in either Chrome or Firefox on Windows on my 2GHz/2GB RAM laptop with a visible pause, but not more than half a second. However, this page is rather more significant, and is affected equally by the file size: http://hg.python.org/cpython/annotate/27c20650aeab/Objects/unicodeobject.c ChrisA _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
