dn0 Posted January 14, 2007 CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 Does anyone else have a problem with a Java applet taking a long time to load up? For example, a weather radar map using java. when I choose the looping image, the browser (both FF and IE) locks up for sometimes up to 1 minute or so. This is annoying. It even does it when running a speedtest with one of the NDT server's (most use Java). Here's a couple examples: http://nitro.ucsc.edu/ http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=ILX&product=NCR&overlay=11101111&loop=yes Now once a an applet has been loaded from one page, it will be OK for a couple hours. I tend to avoid an Java apps because of this issue. maybe I'm being a little petty. PC = P4 2.52GHz / 1Ghz RAM. Any suggestions would be welcome. I have un-installed and re-installed both FF and Java, updated IE, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparticus Posted January 14, 2007 CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 Yeah, running Java 2 Version 1.5.0_10-b03. Try going to one of those pages in safe mode with networking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted January 14, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 Try going to one of those pages in safe mode with networking. Interesting; it loads up instantly in safe mode - no pause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan314 Posted January 14, 2007 CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 This is just a guess but maybe theres something attached to java thats openening when you open java, such as a virus or something. I dont know if thats possible but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparticus Posted January 14, 2007 CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 Interesting; it loads up instantly in safe mode - no pause. That's what I thought. You have something attatched to java when it opens or there is a program running while you want to open java and it's slowing it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted January 14, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 14, 2007 Thanks, Sparticus, I think you're on to something. I almost always have the TV up on my ATI All in Wonder Radeon (I know, it's a little out dated) when I am at the computer. It loads up quicker with that off. I will try looking for newer drivers for the video, if any exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
