The slowness mentioned above is the delay before the web page is
displayed, even when looking at a local file. It's noticeably slower
to display than the previous version (I'm running 0.5.3-1 as mentioned
above.) After the page (http or local .html file) loads, w3m is it's
normal self.
I have more info: If I pipe the output of w3m to "less" or redirect
it to a file, w3m runs at its usual blazing speed. Something
associated with redirecting the output speeds things up.
Summarizing: "w3m foo.html" has a second or two delay, but "w3m
foo.html > foo.output"or "w3m foo.html | less" is near-instantaneous.
Thanks, everyone.
