These are good tips, thankyou. I use workspaces, but they have a lot  
of tabs each. I may have to split them. My daughter's sites are  
graphics-heavy. I haven't looked at the history setting, but  
definitely worth changing it if it will speed up performance.

I have general prefs set not to load images, which does help. Sites  
for which I need the images, have their own prefs.
