- pasbesoin 14y agoThere've been a few comments explaining the "More" behavior. And pg has significantly tweaked it at least once. (If/As I recall, to keep it from tying up so much memory and bogging down the server.) The last I knew, HN was still running on a single box. And maintained by a small set of people. That seems to be pretty damned efficient, overall, and I'm willing to accept a few compromises. One workaround is to load up the linked "More" pages immediately, into new tabs or in one or another other fashion. (Sometimes, a "hack" isn't about code, per se. But please don't overdo this and create needless server load.) Anyhoo, there's some more detail and history in past HN comments, for anyone caring to dig -- through them, as opposed to the Arc source code.
