I’ve noticed that the back button on my browser now reverts to the “Recent Topics” screen that I was just on vastly quicker (like 1 second instead of 15 seconds) than before. Maybe because I updated my Safari browser recently, or maybe the BPL website fixed something. If they fixed something allowing my browser to revert to the stored page, then that’s less work for BPL’s server to do and less data to shuffle out through those internet pipes.
I haven’t noticed the load times of new pages to be much faster than before, if at all.
