KFM does not have java enabled. That is probably one reason why it is so fast and the ads don't show up! ;-)
Why should KFM be faster because it doesn't support Java? I'd think that as long as Java isn't actually being called, it wouldn't make a difference.
No. Konqueror's HTML engine is significantly faster (if not always 100% accurate) than Netscape's, and resize/move events much more intelligently. Also, since Konqueror is significantly smaller than Netscape, loading/unloading and using the browser take a lot less time.
Were you saying no to Jerry's supposition or to mine? Netscape is, of course, a miscoded resource pig, a misbegotten child of the Windows version. But do you think that adding Java capability to Konqueror would slow it down significantly, even for web pages that don't call on that capability? I wouldn't think so.
