Usually loads slow even with dsl, and I think it's due to the animation graphics of the ads. I wish there was a way to disable that.

Yeah, but it's been WAY slower than the usual too slow. There must be a flakey hop between me and their server.

There has been lot of traffic (third world countries) into their servers due to this new listing

I have noticed for a few weeks that the browser becomes a memory drain if left on eBay for a long time. Looks like there are a number of "features" added that suck down the resources but I haven't had time to troubleshoot. It might be they are taxing antispyware software too. If you find it slow, look in your process table for an IE process that is extraordinarily high in memory utilization (like a quarter GB) and kill it.

Hit and miss for me. Sometimes it is very fast, but mostly in the past 2 weeks it has been like a turtle. I have actually stopped listing a few times, only to come back a few hours later just to list a few items.
