So are the message boards faster?

T-man's changes to the database handling should have a pretty significant impact at the speed of the message boards. Do the message boards seem faster?

Yes! The message boards are much much faster! Yay! Now Opera can refuse to load them even faster than before!

*mutter* One day I'll find a browser I can stand using for more than 10 minutes, I swear...

Let's see... Nope. I'm a OD subscriber. Do I need to get WC Browser too for me to see the benefits of all these site upgrades? I really have no need for WC Browser. If I actually see some improvement on my end I would consider getting WC Browser just for the help out. But as I seen no improvements on my end I feel being an OD subscriber is enough to support this site. I even have a DSL connection and this site is the slowest of all the sites I've visited since early 1999 when I switched to DSL. I like this site alot and I love the OD apps.

Just My 2 Cents

Jafo: Wish I could say that! IE pops the pages up in no time, but Opera 7 b(whatever) doesn't even show 'em at least half the time for me. They load - get to 100% - but the screen stays blank. Sometimes I have the reload a page up to a dozen times to get it to show.

All these trying to find some multi-tabbed browsing that doesn't irk me! ^_^

But on the bright side! Much noteably faster, especially on my cable connection. Way to go!

I haven't tried later versions of Opera after 5.11....though I started with it very early in its infancy and used it almost exclusively except for some sites which needed I Explode, because they were not suitably setup for Opera.
Wincusto is, however...as it was checked out quite early on.
Chances are there's the odd setting or three in your Opera proggy that you'll need to change...

The overwhelming majority says, yes it's faster, but I can see no change,................ slow as it ever was.
