Bug#621699: Navigation of gnumeric help is ridiculously slow

[Ben Hutchings]

Package: yelp
Version: 2.30.1+webkit-1
Severity: important

I open Gnumeric help and select the 'Graphs' chapter and wait.
Then I see that Yelp is using ~180% CPU time (multiple threads, eh?).
About 2.5 minutes later that chapter is displayed, but yelp is
still using ~100% CPU time.

What the hell is it doing?!

Ben.
