I had decided to go over David message, but since now there are two misinterpretations of my early message in W3C lists i am sending a common reply to both of you. I did *not* claimed that MathML was the cause of the performance problem in FireFox 2. I did *not* cited other browsers, rendering engines, *nor* future versions of Firefox. In my original message of day 8 Apr 2008 I was replying David over dramatic statement. The message analyzed a case extracted from real world and compared with several MathML cases. One of nine original points was about incremental rendering, where i discussed an issue affecting Firefox 2 with medium-size MathML docs. David reply to that point was something like everything-is-fine-for-me. But the performance problems with Firefox 2 are not the result of a local setup problem as David suggested but a well-known issue with the MathML engine. This was showed in my message of 14 April 2008, which also contained a link to *own Mozilla site* discussing MathML performance issues with the browser [#]. I also cited Padovani research about Mozilla performance problems with large and complex MathML docs and typed a quotation -including the part where Padovani explains the absence of problem in alternative rendering engine-. Obviously, i introduced the quotation as support for my previous message, which was noticing of the existence of performance problems -not local setups- with a native MathML capable main browser. Therefore i fail to understand the points and false attributions becoming from both of you. Juan R.
