How's The Board Loading?

Okay, I spotted a potential issue....

The avitars are being processed through the board, called by avitar.php - I am wondering how much work this has to do by itself to load a thread. I have seen some other board that just seem to use "direct" links rather than processing for this.

Hi RawAlex, the avatars should not cause a slowdown, but I have noticed that page-loading will pause on certain signatures. A few people like to use javascript and remote invocation of phpAds in their sigs.

Greenguy: We have discovered that phpAdsNew remote invocation is hella slow (which caused problems before at the top of the page). My best bet for a quick fix to this would be to enclose the sigs in an iframe (this will cause them to load after the page, and any broken or slow javascript won't cause the page to hang). I will talk to the _real_ lbbv on Monday, as he's at our datacenter today. We're keeping an eye on things
