Hi guys.

I was reporting this bug many times. But still probably
Opera developers are ignoring this.

Opera is running tight loop with millions of gettimeofday calls.

http://smp.if.uj.edu.pl/~baryluk/opera10_few_seconds_of_strace.txt.gz

This is present sine 9.6x series, and is present in all snapshots,
including Beta3 and 4546.

I'm using Debian Unstable, with custom 2.6.31-rc6 (but also happens
on 2.6.2x), on x86 (Pentium M). I'm using GNOME.

This is so annoying, that in last 2 months i'm mostly using Firefox.
Opera is completely unusable now, even closing opera takes minutes. Most
times i need to kill it. I can browse even few seconds without
triggering this issue.


Other people also complain about it:

Maybe this is ssl problem, maybe cache issue, maybe something. Please
provide any hint how to provide you reproducible test (maybe provide
version of opera with debug symbols?).

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Witek
