As title said, perhaps upgrade the server? Or get more servers & load balanced them?

Really putting me off making comments, suggestions and vote to promote the applications.

Any actions take ages to execute.

This is real poor, think about a few weeks ahead when apps begin to flood in with the N900 release.

I'm on a 18meg line here, Talk is the only section that doesn't seem to suffer.

I think this may got something to do with the back-end databases, there's a bottleneck somewhere. Perhaps do some profiling?

Until the speed is resolved, there'll be apps waiting for weeks to get promoted and get lack of useful feedbacks from the community.
