Try the same test, but with google as your home page. Do you still get
slow result for first page load? I've seen low traffic web servers take
a few seconds to "wake up".
I do not think that is the cause. My home page is an HTML file on my
hard drive. There is no server to wake up upon launching SeaMonkey.
To clarify this specific point, did you not say "my own on a Web server"
two paragraphs above?
I launched SeaMonkey, which brought up a home page that is an HTML file
residing on an internal hard drive on my PC. That home page is an
export of my bookmarks, automatically generated when I previously
terminated SeaMonkey. I then selected the bookmark for my own Web
stite's home page, not the version also on my hard drive but instead the
version that is on my ISP's server. That is when I observed a delay. I
then returned to my home page, cleared my cache, and again selected the
link to my Web site's home page. There was no delay.
NOTE WELL: There are TWO "home pages" involved here. One is the page I
get when I select the Home button on SeaMonkey's tool bar or [Go > Home]
on SeaMonkey's menu bar. That page is displayed when I launch
SeaMonkey. The other one is the index page of my Web site; it is at
<http://www.rossde.com/index.html>.
When I start my PC it launches a local Web server, WAMP. When I launch
any browser it loads a .php page on that server as its home page. That
home page uses a local CSS style sheet.
My "home" pages buttons are programmed to go to that .php file.
It is this customization that endears SeaMonkey to me.
I rarely use Firefox, mostly for use in the Firefox support group.
