I did a browser comparison yesterday using a camera image
of a street scene which is updated every twenty seconds.
The URL is http://www.oregonlive.com/officecam/.
My computer is a 100 Mhz Pentium, but the modem is only
14,400 bps.  With Arachne v.1.66, I could see every one
of the images, though for only a brief period.
Using Netscape v.3.04 in BasicLinux, many of the images
only loaded partially, though occasionally there would
be a complete image.  Finally, using Netscape v.4.51 with
Slackware Linux v.7.1, at no time was an image visible.
I expected v.4.51 to be slow, I thought v.3.04 would be
faster than Arachne.
