I’m new to QNX and couldn’t get it to run on my second hard drive (Linux does
but QNX won’t?) so I put it into W98.
I’ve noticed that Voyager runs very slowly and will often fail to download
pages completely. Is this a result of using QNX in W98 or does this happen to
people using QNX in its own partition?
Oddly enough the pages that Voyager seems to have the most trouble with are
the ones that QNX puts up! I’ve even had difficulty getting to them in W2K at
work.
I like the look of Voyager but I have to admit that I never thought I’d see a
browser that runs slower or fails to resolve than Net+ for BeOS.

I’ve installed QNX on two different PCs with different hardware… Voyage
seems to run VERY fast - faster than any of my other browsers.

I have discovered the same thing - it is blindingly fast - it’s similar to using Opera compared to IE5.5 - very very fast…
I have a FCPGA 566 and all my other OSes beat qnx for browsing. W2K is the
fastest.
Don’t you mean that other browsers appear to be faster?
I’m telling you that it rarely completes a lot of pages, particularly qnx’s
pages. No, Voyager is very slow.
Have you taken into account the caching of pages by the browsers? (Try
shift-reload in Netscape for instance)
The biggest impact on browsing speed is the Internet connection between
your desktop and the server you’re connected to.

As I said, it fails to complete pages. So couple a lack of speed with
the fact that it won’t complete them. It’s not an ISP issue. Every
OS/browser I have is faster.
On top of that I’ve noticed that while using Voyager my processor’s
temp will go from 85 degrees to 106 in a very short time. I’m guessing
that there’s a few bugs in Voyager or QNX with regards to FCPGA and VIA.
It’s a great looking OS but it’s just not working right with my setup.
