• when its running slowly, could you check how quickly name look ups occur, please? So 'dig www.this.that', and preferably do a similar thing with something that runs at a reasonable speed (google?). ie: searched the word hotel it took 55 seconds in rv.net and 1 second in google
• does it also run slowly if you get something from cache (eg, with the back button)?back button, was fast
• and what about a traceroute to one of the sites in question

I don't know how to di traceroute

and, are you really sure that you have thoroughly excised all references to IPV6? Having a mix of IPV6 and IPV4 seems to be the most common ways of having networking work slowly these days. I only did uncheck IPV6 in yast/networking where else should I look> And what about something untoward in nsswitch.conf? Can you post that, please?don't know how

Thanks,
