Thanks for posting Happy. I do appreciate the heads up on important issues, as I for one do not read the SW Forums at all. OT: I really hope one of their focuses is to clean up those Forums in the future too.
Lag has always been an issue, sometimes it's really bad and sometimes none at all. I'll have to pay more attention to where exactly I'm noticing it the most. I know sometimes (not often though) I'll just freeze completely -- I just refresh and log in again at that point, if I don't un-freeze shortly. Most recently this happened during a mission, HyperTerminal. Well, there's a lot going on in that room to begin with anyway -- and maybe there was too many people in the space at the given time.
Anyway, I'm glad to hear that SW does recognize that lag is an issue, even though it's not their equipment.
Darn, I wish we were seeing the fish tanks too.
