I am finding the site to be almost non-functional since the upgrade. This is using Firefox on Win7. About 80% of the time, clicking on links just hangs with the server not responding. Other sites are working fine, so it does not appear to be a general network issue.

Rigid rules rarely solve problems. You can't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Do you want a police officer to not help people because he thinks his camera might fail?
