I compiled Privoxy with Gentoos portage and it appears to be very slow. Why?
Probably you unintentionally compiled Privoxy without threading support in which case requests have to be serialized and only one can be served at the same time. Check your “USE” flags and make sure they include “threads”. If they don’t, add the flag and rebuild Privoxy. If you compiled Privoxy with threading support (on POSIX-based systems), the “Conditional #defines” section on http://config.privoxy.org/show-status will list “FEATURE_PTHREAD” as “enabled”.
