Not sure if this is a known problem, but I've noticed major performance issues with KDE apps, particularly Konqueror, handling large images. Running top shows nearly 100% cpu time going to XFree86. Image viewers like GQview have no trouble whatsoever.
Try this page for example: http://www.surplus.psu.edu/annual_spring_auction.htm It contains a ridiculously large jpeg that is also scaled by width/height tags. Obviously this is an example of poor web design, but I've had the problem surface elsewhere too. This just happens to be easily repeatable.
