The status bar will display "Contacting acme.com", the CPU will go to 100% (per MenuMeters) and the spinning beachball will appear. There will be plenty of RAM free (also per MenuMeters). The problem seems worse, for me, on Yahoo Mail - with Safari only lasting about 5 minutes. I have cleared my caches from within the browser, checked permissions and run maitenance routines per Onyx. I run Inquisitor and SafariBlock on my machines. I was running Glims, but removed it when the problems started.
