           Summary: very slow rendering of animated gifs
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Images
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: koenvanderdrift at gmail.com


Whenever I open a page that contains one or more animated gifs, Safari completely becomes unusable, sometimes for several minutes. There is no way to stop the process, go to another tab or page, or quit the application (Force Quit does work, of course). Some searching revealed that this is fixed on 10.6, but on 10.5 (which I use) it is still present.

Can this be fixed in Safari for 10.5 as well?
