I only received it this morning. The delay may be a GMX thing, as they are 
"improving" their anti-spam system at the moment.

Same hardware renders the same email much faster in Outlook.

That might be a workaround, as these circulars always have the same pictures. 
However, Outlook renders them fast even on the first attempt, so my guess is 
that there is something in the code that slows it down.

Well noted about the comfort, but I think being able to use TB! for work is 
important enough to honour the reason why I started this thread. TB! is now 
greatly decreasing efficiency. If this is not fixed, my company will have to 
move on.

I wouldn't help if TB! became a very comfortable and inefficient email client.

It's about visual comfort. We used dark theme similar to ChokoDark in Dos 
Navigator back in 1992, long before dark themes become a trend. The Bat! had a 
non-white default background for similar reasons, so this buzz about dark 
themes is not just a toy :-)

I actually replied yesterday. Looks like images from the last message was 
downloaded with slow speed. The first message is rendered immediately here, so 
I'm wondering about the hardware...

To fix problem with slow sties, we are going to use file caching in the next 
Beta, we'll see how it goes. I see some performance improvements with file 
cache already, so it'll stay anyway, I guess.

I am sure you can still read emails without fancy colours. But let's not go 
into this - you seem to be quite religious about it.

It takes a full minute to render. Slows down work to an unacceptable time, and 
freezes TB! during that time. It totally interrupts the work flow.

I think there is a difference.

Some of emails have this delay again and again. Just go to another email and 
return to it and need to wait again. Some do this for 1-2 sec, this is normal 
for me, some have delay more than 5 sec - this looks abnormal. What about to 
store "black" state after showing first time this message?, not re-render every 
time.

1) Toy that up my speed of work. Stop works of that feature will be strange. We 
need release without some child bugs.

2) TB! Use it Chromium core now. Is your email looks equal bad in the Chrome or 
another chromium browser?
