when using kget as download manager, rekonq gets frozen until kget is loaded, which takes too long. Reproducible: Always
Related to/duplicate of bug 328284 or bug 304962.
Confirmed that this is a kget bug. Deleting all finished downloads speeds up things tremendously.
I'm a google code-in who is trying to do bug triaging task. Can you provide which version that you're using?
rekonq is dead so marking it as RESOLVED UNMAINTAINED.
