I'm not sure there isn't something strange happening on your
system.
I hope not, but the Iyonix should be a bit faster than a RiscPC with a
Vpod (1280x1024, 16M colours if it matters).
On my system (an Iyonix), your url[1] loads with incremental reflow
enabled in less than 4s.

Try the other test. Go to http://www.minimarcos.org.uk/galleries.html
and click on the link "Mk.VI". This takes you to the bottom of a
largish thumbnail index. It was taking a lot of time to reformat the
table, redraw the page and then reposition it to the on-page name tag
every few images.

I don't want a "user experience" - I just want stuff that works.
