Our engineers did some retooling and viewing/voting on polls should load faster now.

Yes, much faster

    In one of the great engineering feats of our time, last night I took the most powerful server out to dinner, spoke quietly in its fan and whispered sweet nothings into its NIC at which point the the server assured me it would make things faster.....

    There you go, the secret to better performing systems.

    Yes! Much MUCH faster!

    Dude, thank you! Everything loads faster! Before, I had trouble even logging in, waiting for things to load. Now, it's freaking awesome!

    Thank you!

    They tend to run very slowly when there is a lot of graphics/photos, etc. I attempted to email you earlier and it timed out. Finally, it went through!!

    At work I have a very fast connection and have never had a problem with polls loading slowly. At home and on the road I access the internet through a cellular connection and when it reverts from an EVDO connection to 1xrtt polls would load almost unbearably slow. I am sitting at home, in the middle of nowhere, with a 1xrtt connection and I can tell a huge difference.

    No, loads slower

    I know that when I leave a comment some of the times. The screen seems to freeze and just sit there forever. Just like when I am typing. I finished typing but all the letters haven't come up on the screen yet. Very annoying!

    P.S. But thanks for trying to improve things and listening to our concerns!

    The ability to post your reply while still looking at the poll is a wonderful improvement. Saves all that back and forth. Thanks.

    I meant when viewing and voting on polls -- not the creation of them. I should have clarified and will do in the description.

    sorry! thanks for the correction. they seem to load fine for me. but i've only been with sh for a few weeks and still haven't a lot to compare with.

    i think some of the sh might be loaded and slow to load! but, not much i can do about that!
