It seems irrelevant to me where the server is. The server could be in the U.S. and just be very slow. Or, the server could be in France and could work just fine for someone in the U.S. (as it works for me). What is relevant is whether the server is fast enough for you, and you can only see by trying it. But if another developer gives a +1 for specifying that the server is in France, I will listen. In any case, this discussion on server speeds is a good one to have and I'm glad we collected a poll and made progress on making it better. Thanks for all of the suggestions. Scott
