Delicious only displays 25/50/whatever bookmarks per page. I suppose it would take awhile (I assume it makes HEAD requests to all the URLs it finds on the page) but any tool is going to take awhile. Just open another browser tab/window/instance if you need to keep surfing. Using this plugin does have a drawback on Delicious pages, because it checks all navigation links as well as the bookmarks, though it seems smart enough to ignore things marked logout/delete/etc. Tim -- Tim Larson InterCall, a subsidiary of West Corporation Eschew obfuscation!
