Version: (using KDE Devel) When using tabed browsing with middle mouse botton you can't rapidly click on a bunch of links and have them opened in the background. Example: Go to: http://apps.kde.com/na/2/info/vid/8717?mdld=t&sid=2012f73871def7a507e94f06dd217d1f&sid=2012f73871def7a507e94f06dd217d1f and try to open all for screenshots as quick as possible in the background Using my speed of typing usually only one of those opens, and still has a noticeable lag BEFORE even reacting (Using an AMD 700 MHZ w/ 512 MB RAM and a DSL connection...) Correct behaviour from a users stand point should be: - Fire and Forget (and be sure Konqueror will do it's job, since Konqueror always does it AND there is immediate visual feedback) Cheers, Thorsten
This bug is related to bug 47814, afaik there is only one background request at a time so if you try to open multiple tab at once they are interrupting each other even before the request succeed. A consequence of this is that slower internet connections will make you wait longer until the tab finally appears. My proposed solution (as a non-programmer) should be quite simple to realize: One could change the order of creating the new tab and loading the content. Creating a new empty tab (Ctrl+Shift+N) is instant, so use this existing feature to create the new tab first and only then try look up and load the requested URL. Hope a programmer will pick it up so we can close this and related bug reports.
Once the fix for bug 47814 is backported, you have to click *very* fast to reproduce this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 47814 ***
