Thanks very much for your response to my question.

I have used apt-get to remove the original opera, renamed ~/.opera to 
~/.opera.old to get a really fresh start, and used apt-get to install 
the latest version which is 9.21 from the Kubuntu repository.

Opera is still pretty sluggish and acts like it is reloading the page 
from the internet when I press the back button or z.

It's not sluggish on _every_ page though.
Could it be my cache settings are not large enough?
I have 1 gig of ram and mucho disk space.

memory cache is automatic
disk cache is 20 mb
check documents and images is every 5 minutes.

This is the previous version I removed:
Version  9.20
Build    638
Platform  Linux
System  i686, 2.6.20-15-generic
Qt library 3.3.7
Java Java Runtime Environment installed

Now installed opera 9.21-20070510.6
Version  9.21
Build    641
Platform  Linux
System   i686, 2.6.20-15-generic
Qt library  3.3.7
Java Java Runtime Environment installed
