From: Randall Parker 

Geo,

When I say it is fast on the first click on a message and slow on the
second, it is really fast on the first and then slow on the next n of them.
If I do not use it for 15 minutes (not exactly sure how long) and come back
and click the first message I click on is again fast. Then the next ones
are slow again.

It does not matter the order of the messages. It isn't like the first one I
click on has to be the first one in time order that hasn't been read. I
just read the newest one and then read the one before it and that one was
slow to access.

What would cause this?
