I'm running 5378 atm, and with the admittedly shallow testing I've done so far, it seems to work everywhere that earlier versions did, and I share the impression that it's noticeably quicker when loading e.g. the ROOL site.

Hello, Please could you test the latest builds (5377 or later) from: https://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/ Particularly please test the Amiga OS4 and RISC OS builds as we have updated the versions of 3rd party libraries that we build against.

In addition we have patched the version of libcurl we build against which should make HTTPS connections much faster for the RISC OS and Amiga OS4 builds.

That's odd, as it doesn't seem to happen here on this ARMX6. Hang on a minute though. On the first pair of images, the water in the fjord is blue in one image and orange in the second. Similarly, the sky behind the tree is blue in one image and orange in the other. This is way beyond my understanding.

Netsurf 2.9 is very unstable on Debian Wheezy. If I stick to simple text-only sites, I can usually browse to at least 5 sites before Netsurf crashes, but going to Amazon crashes it immediately.

NetSurf rendering speed test
Hello :) Please can somebody try accessing the following site in NetSurf and tell me how it compares speed-wise to any other page: http://www.amigaimpact.org It is painfully slow in my port (takes about 8 seconds to page down), so I want to know whether it is something in my code slowing it down or something which affects the core. Thanks Chris
