Not an HTML problem, but is there any explanation for why FR posts now have a bit of a delay after they are submitted?

When the threads reload after submitting a post, I do not see my latest message. I have to refresh the thread page several times to see what I've typed.

FR used to always run in realtime, now it seems like there is a "seven second" delay. Is equipment being maxed out by the number of users or have there been some changes behind the scenes?

I noticed the same especially yesterday during the FReepathon.

"seven second" delay

Gives time for the CBS legal dept to give their approval.

More buffering, bigger buffers to decrease reads and writes would be my guess!

Yeah, I've noticed that, too. There's also a delay in the NEW POSTS TO YOU flag at times, meaning the flag will be inactive even though I do have new posts to me.
