When inputing text in Gmail Safari slows down a lot

Hi,

When I am writing a mail in Gmail safari (v. 4.0) will sometimes slow down a lot and I have to wait for a few minutes while it catches up to what I am writing. It seems to happen randomly and after a few minutes of really slow responsiveness (say I type a letter and it appears in around a second) it starts working correctly again.

I never had this problem before and am not sure if it happens in other web pages.

Thanks!

Juan

Mac Book Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.7), Safari v. 4.0

I think this quote should actually say "If you post it there then they will see it and continue to ignore it."

I've sent Apple feedback about many things and never received anything even resembling a response or a fix. Apple doesn't care much about their customers any more in my opinion.

Hi Micah d.:

Everyone is entitled to their opinions.

My point was at least Apple says they will read something sent to Feedback whereas they say they do not read the forums for problems.

No where have I ever heard it stated they will respond to feedback. In fact I think it is more a rule that they don't. Just because they don't reply back that doesn't say that they totally ignore them either.

I look at as that old axiom of if you don't ask it is an absolute NO, if you do ask it is a maybe no, I think a maybe no is always better then an absolute NO so I always ask.
