Performance browsers in Shapeshifter
« on: December 14, 2005, 06:54:40 PM »
I've got Shapeshifter running on my machine with System 7.5.5 on a dedicated partition. Simcity 2000 works like charm and Doom II runs with +/-12 fps. I guess that's ok for my specs.

But the browsers are slow, really slow. I tried Netscape 4.03, 4.05 and Internet Explorer 4.01. Ibrowse on the Amiga is a lot faster. Is this normal or can I try some optimizations?

I use the built in TCP/IP config from System 7.5.5. Could that be a problem? Also unstuffing files with StuffIt Expander takes a long time; even for files of a few MBs.

I guess I'll try downgrading to an even lower version of NS or IE.
