I understand that gmail does some stuff "under the covers" that really speed
up response time, like "returning" to an Inbox from reading a message is
almost instantaneous.  (compare with Yahoo -- S_L_O_W)

Lately, I've noticed a few quirks when composing an email message.  (I use
gmail's "rich formatting" option.)  Sometimes using the space bar doesn't
register on-screen until a non-blank character is typed.  You might hit the
space bar twice and the cursor still sits directly after the last typed
character; it tends to throw you off a bit.

At the end of a paragraph, I hit Enter twice to start a new paragraph; this
leaves one blank line between the two paragraphs.  Within the past week I've
noticed that an extra line feed will appear between paragraphs, and I have
to manually delete the extra line feed.

Of course, trying to replicate it now won't work.

Anybody else noticed this?  This is on WinXP Pro, SP2 + all updates, Firefox
v1.5.0.1, fairly current Java (FWIW).  System performance is otherwise very
good.


Thanks,  (huh, as soon as I typed the 'T' on Thanks, it jumped down another
line, so there are now two blank lines before this paragraph.)
