Leiche
Found this online:

You could try adding the following line to your /etc/modprobe.conf file:
Code:
alias net-pf-10 off

konqueror has an option to keep at least one instance in memory. Is the option turned on?

oh, you meant opening up a link on an already running instance of konqueror. I though you were talking about opening up a link that will start up konqueror, my bad.

That web page is pretty heavy and most browser will take some time to display it, some will take more time than others.

Have you tried to open the page using firefox or chrome or opera and compare which one opened it fastest/slowest?
