</div>From what I've read, BPBible uses wx and therefor probably the wxHTML<br>

I would imagine QtWebKit to be more akin (and maybe faster) to<br>
Firefox's performance than wx's. I'll give it a go and see how it<br>
turns out with Early Church Fathers. Also, when you say "lazy<br>
loading" do you mean the user can scroll continuously through the<br>
entire work, and you just feed the widget more data as it is needed?<br>
Because that would be an equivalent Use Case with better<br>
under-the-hood performance.<br></blockquote><div>Yes, that's what I mean. It has a couple of downsides like the fact that scrollbars don't mean as much, but overall gives a better experience I think. </div></div>
