Bug Description
Binary package hint: yelp
Help 2.28.0
Ubuntu 9.10
When I click 'System > Help and Support' (or when I click 'Help' from within an application), the help dialog box takes several seconds to load, during which the system seems heavily taxed. It seems to me like the contents of the Help system are all being loaded into memory as the dialog opens. Maybe a splash screen, or segment the contents of the Help system to allow it to load smaller chunks rather than have such a delay?
