wxHtmlWindow.LoadPage() is strangely slow

Hi all,

I wonder why LoadPage() from wxHtmlWindow class is so slow. E.g. loading

http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/manuals/html63_user/v.buffer.html

(from local source code copy) takes on my computer more then 2.5s.

Because it doesn't do any display at all until it has all the components of the page (the full text, the image(s), etc.) OTOH, full browsers will pipeline the display and layout as things arrive over the wire. Plus, I think that HtmlWindow only fetches one thing at a time instead of opening multiple connections to the server.
