[techtalk] netscape woes

I'm using Rh 6.0 with Gnome/Enlightenment on an i686
with 130 megs of RAM. I need multiple browser windows
open most of the day, and I'm using Navigator 4.7 with
strong encryption. I've disabled Java. most of the
sites I use are fairly barebones, and I don't load
images until I need them, but it's still a constant
hair-puller. Periodically I'll hear the rumble of
frantic disk access, the entire GUI will switch to
geological time, and I'll have to switch machines,
telnet in, kill all my netscape processes remotely,
and start over. It's getting ridiculous.

Can anyone suggest advice or diagnostic tricks? Should
I ditch Gnome/Enlightenment? Go back to an older
Netscape?

thanks,
sha
