The idea here is that multitasking will work a bit better, and it might.

Either way, it can't hurt to try.
Oddly enough, that's one of the use-cases that would kill my N900 prior to PR1.3, and since then I've not had a case of the browser near-killing my system or it being 100% unusable while apt/HAM was doing something.

I would like to see a change set highlighting what was done to tackle this problem.
