Safari Extensions Slowing Safari

[LouieSamman]

When I download certain extensions from Safari such as adblock it slows the SunSpider Javascript Test and get a larger number than if I were to have adblock disabled.

I can confirm this by doing the test and noticing the slowdown of the test and disabling the adblock extention as SunSpider is doing the test, when I do the speed of the test goes to normal.

I have the same results with other extensions.

Because of this I am afraid to install extensions on Safari as I feel it's messing with the speed of browsing.

Try it yourself and let me know.

There are several threads with people complaining about the AdBlock extension. I'd get rid of it.

Does AdBlock extension slow Safari down?
Delay in Adblock for Safari Extension
AdBlock for Safari 5 is a POS
Alternative to AdBlock for Safari 5?
I just wanted to share with you... (filters for glimmerblocker

Thank god I'm not the only one. Should have done a research of others who posted this issue. But other than adblock I feel that if adblock can mess with Safari that other extensions will do the same that results in different issues. This should not be the case.
