I have a strong negative reaction every time I view the InfoQ site. I can't say exactly what is the problem thought... perhaps they should have somewhat bigger margins to separate content from menus and ads?
I have one contact on LinkedIn whose profile takes significantly longer to load than that of anyone else I'm linked to. On days when the others are taking under a second to load, his takes anywhere from 5 seconds to half a minute.<p>There are two ways his differs from the others. (1) he has way more contacts than anyone else I know, and (2) he has a paid LinkedIn membership, whereas I and all my other contacts have free memberships.<p>Has anyone else noticed particular profiles always load slow, and if so, does this correlate with either them having a large number of contacts or with them having a paid membership?

Surprised to read LinkedIn's "People You May Know" MapReduce pipeline takes 82 jobs.<p>From what I've read Google's index runs in around 20 MapReduce jobs.
