Indeed :-)

During my testing I’ve observed delays of up to a second or so. Obviously, I 
don’t expect a production system to be prone to such delays, but in any case 
what I’m trying here is to minimize the impact of things going terribly wrong 
from the user’s perspective. The way this has been contributed to SSP, if the 
MDX server takes too much to respond (for whatever reason), the result is the 
user experiencing a blank page for a while. Which is not very good user 
experience, IMHO. That’s basically one of the things I’m trying to avoid here.
