At the moment we're only an order of magnitude too slow and you'd be
suprised
how a little tuning will fix stuff like that. That's a great option
but let's wait and see. I'd think we'd know by the end of the week.
The conversion acts like one long user session, and performs like
a user would perform. I can change this and make it go faster, but
I want it to act like a regular user both to make sure the regular
user will work and so that any time spent improving performance will
improve performance for the system's users.
