For sure, since it is interactive mode that will suffer most performance-
wise.  Hopefully now is the time to "revisit?"

Perhaps on a different topic, perhaps related, have others been finding
Lynx trying to render binary code as text when it should prompt for
D)ownload or C)ancel?  It's happened a couple of times recently but always
when I'm too busy to be bothered.  It's a real pest to wait 5-10 minutes
only to get a screen full of garbage, or have to back up and press 'D'.
