Description David Kilzer (:ddkilzer) 2007-07-31 22:38:09 PDT
* SUMMARY
Opening the BBC History Figures page in Safari/WebKit takes much longer than it should.  Both Firefox 2.0.0.6 and Opera 9.21 are easily 2x faster.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Safari/WebKit.
2. Go to URL:  http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/

* RESULTS
The page takes around 10 seconds to load on a Quad G5 with the Safari 3 Public Beta v. 3.0.3.  The same page takes about 2 seconds on Firefox or Opera.

* REGRESSION
Not tested with Safari 2.0.4 (419.3), so unknown if this is a regression.
