In my FC7, using Firefox, if for example, I access
www.google.com, I get an essentially instantaneous
response. If I then close the browser, reopen it,
and again try to access google, there is a long
delay, perhaps a minute before I get the response.
(I note that my browser is set to delete all
private on closing.) During this delay, the
browser reports that it is looking up the URL.
If I then wait a few minutes I can repeat the
whole scenario.
I suspect that something similar may be happening
with my Pan news reader.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike.
Does this happen with any other browsers? I know Pan can be really
sluggish at times, so I tend to discount that app as far as network
reaction times go.
Does opera or Konqueror do that? I haven't seen this problem in FF on
my Fedora boxes.
