Interesting, I have seen this "slowness" myself when TB opens up the
HTML tab on mail that has been received.  It seems to take a great
deal of time for it to open, especially with a full heavy duty HTML
document that I sometimes get.  Interesting about the memory "black
hole."

There is a feature in Options to turn on or off using an external
image viewer.

Interesting ..  Have not had the use of large images yet, or large
attachments.

Go to the help button on top of TB and click on "feedback".  You will
see "bug report" listed first.

Today's thought: Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I
cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom
to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill because they pissed me
off.
