The problem is that the image is just very large. Konqueror/khtml/qt is not= =20 very efficient in handling such large images. It seems that it attempts to= =20 send the whole image as a single pixmap to the X-server because the memory= =20 usage of the X-server increases with about 120Mb as well.

I have been trying to figure out just what is causing this because it seems to happen to me all the time when I browse the web. I have noticed that once a jpeg gets above about 1500x1500, or when it approaches 1MB, konqueror starts to really slow down. When I try and load 3000x3000 (1.4MB) jpeg the whole system is down on its knees. Could someone point me to the source files that handle rendering jpeg images in konqueror so I could take a look at them?
