And let me tell you, @sneak.... Steemit is NOT fast.
except in bursts. It is occasionally wicked-fast. Congratulations on that, it's an accomplishment.
Except it's not wicked-fast most of the time. In my experience, these days it is wicked slow most of the time when it is making a query to steemd (or however you've got it cached if it's cached). OK?
WICKED. SLOW.
