Ok, I'm sitting here with my old dell laptop.
P3 700
256mb RAM
SLOW stock 10gig HD
Very little resource usage... Right now with firefox open and everything else going, i'm using 132304k
I run bandwidth testers throughout the day at random times and get between 1.5 and 2.8mbits down on my connection.
I have my options here on OCF to show 100 posts per page in a thread. When I click on a thread, I end up waiting about 20 seconds or more for all 100 posts to be displayed... (i go to the thread immediately, but only 14 or so posts will be displayed, i have to wait and just keep hitting page down to see the rest as they get displayed)
Ok when I'm in the lab working at school, i'm on an oldish 2.4ghz intel with 512mb ram. Connection seems to be the same speed as at home. The thing is, with a default FF install (no plugins), I can click a thread, it waits maybe 2 seconds, and goes to a fully loaded 100 post page... WTF?!?!
Does page rendering really rely on PC specs? Or are my plugins to blame? DRIVES ME NUTS!!!
