The PH engine is defo running out of steam these days. How many hours have we spent staring hopefully at the greyed out 'Submit' button wondering if it will fail or double post?

I have an idea to help. I now keep two browser windows open. While the first window is grinding 386-style through your 'Submit' request, you can use the other window to browse topics and compose your next reply somewhere else. By the time you've done that, you can return to the the first wondow and find that is has 'cooked'.

At the moment two windows seem to soak up the time delay; however I'm ready to use three windows if the string dries out even more spin

yes Come on, Simpo, two can't possibly be enough given your post/month ratio!!!

By the time you have about 17 tabs open, though, you've forgotten which thread you're responding to... paperbaghehe

I'm just having a quick look before work, but a glance at the task bar shows 17 PH windows open. I get frustrated watching other internet users who click on one link at a time...
