There is really only one issue: Does Mozilla leak memory? If yes, then periodicly closing frees that memory. Else don't bother yourself. I, myself, don't user -turbo. I close it and reopen as needed. I don't see great delays in starting and I am using a K6-2 400. The throughput of the hard drive is the load time consideration item. 7200 rpm disks make the issue moot, if the user has enought memory. Thanks for asking. -- Bill <Labor Day is September 2>
