It is idle until you start loading a page. Using the Gnome System
Monitor you can watch the cpu  resources get sucked up as you perform
each action in the browser. I also cleared the cache and tried exactly
the same thing with Mozilla. I then cleared the cache again and tried
the same thing again with Konqueror. The difference was very
significant.

Don't get me wrong, Konqueror has always been my browser of choice in
the past. The version I have now was installed as part of the Redhat 8.0
bundled install (and subsequent RHN updates/patches). From what I am
hearing that it is quite possible that the Redhat 8.0 configuration is
suspect.
