Well, like I said in my last mail, the "taking forever to render" problem got 
fixed.  However, the "hovering over link spikes cpu to 100%" is definetly 
still there.  Add the System Monitor applet to your kicker, look at the far 
left bar whilst hovering over the various links (just swipe back and forth 
between a few of them).  Should it really take *that* much cpu just to put an 
underline under the text?
