I get the digest instead of individual massages. (no individual xMailer lines) For this reason (and because I have a bad memory), I forgot that you are using Linux Arachne v1.66b That's why it takes so much longer for all those images. No keepalive in Linux Arachne v1.66b Nor in any DOS version before v1.69 I'll disable KeepAlive and try it again. BRB ____ No big difference. 2:15 Now I'll turn off multitasking. BRB ____ Still no big difference. 2:23 Howerver, IIRC Netscape can open 10 connections at once for image D/Ls BRB ____ Yep, that was it. Only 1:15 with Linux NS v4.61 AFAIK, That's the only big difference. (10 connections instead of only 2) -- Glenn http://arachne.cz/ http://freedos-32.sourceforge.net/ http://www.delorie.com/listserv/mime/ http://www.angelfire.com/id/glenndoom/download.htm
