I recently had a delay like that after upgrading. It
was due to the
rewrite rules causing the program to look in the wrong place for the
style sheets and javascript files.
1.3.6 and 1.3.7 are terribly, terribly slow for me, and I don't use
rewrite rules at all
I spent ages putting Apache and MySQL into highperformance modes,
recompiled most of the OS for Pentium III, tweaked anything I could
to get a speed boost, with little effect. Went back to 1.3.5 and it
was fast again, faster than before due to the tweaks.
For some reason I can't think of any reason for, Mozilla looks for
favicon.ico about 20 times on 1.3.7 and only about 4 times on 1.3.5.
So its possible there is some rewrite-looking-for-stuff going on.
