Make sure your server is up to snuff, and you should be fine
Yeah, that was the only thing I was thinking, but you'd have to be on a really cheap host to be effected by this.

Personally, to go against the crowd I'll say that while I do use ssi calls on my LL I don't on my recip tables. For my purposes I don't care for the limitations it would put on my design. I can't break up the table any differently, can't use 3 columns instead of five or drop some text in the middle.

Just thought I'd post that to let all builders know that ssi recip tables aren't a necessity, just something most of the cool kids do.
