(Like I suggested in 2009...)

BTW, you suggest pound for the slow client problem, but according to this email it doesn't help for that.

Pound helped this problem for delicious in 2005, and by the time I wrote this article it was starting to not be the right answer. In 2011, it's definitely wrong :)
