Thanks for taking my rant well, but trust me ... I went through 
more bugzilla bug reports than most of the people here (I am 
employed as bug triager at Red Hat). On the top of not that fast 
bugzilla I use a lot of Greasemonkey scripts so my pages are 
a little bit slower.

But still there are ways how to make it working (and I do every 
workday) ... for example you can Ctrl-<click> couple of tabs from 
your query and let them download on the background while you work 
on the first one.

If the speed of bugzilla was the biggest problem we have, we 
would be most lucky people in the world.

And do please read that Alan Cox's article ... it is one of the 
finest pieces of writing on open source development I have ever 
seen (and as a former lawyer I read a lot).

Best,

Matej
