Yes, what I don't like is the fact that using chunking with the current
implementation of gnome2-db2html makes the gain from caching the
documents much less interesting.

Yelp used to use the chunking-stuff so that only the section asked for
was displayed. I changed this a while back since it was more-or-less
unusable because of the speed at which you could view the documents.

Before anyone rewrite gnome2-db2html to do some internal caching or
comes up with a scheme that solves this I think that we need to rethink
the usage of chunking, because at current it would be totally unusable.
