Just to view one message from each friend, taking a total of 1 second to do so will take you a total of 12.5 hours.

How would you ever find time to view any feeds?

This isn't silly?

Opera doesn't delay in loading up, but as feeds come in – faster than they do with Twitter, or Google Reader, and I recieve 40 feeds – when I had around 150 feeds, I was simply trying to scan the headlines and pick one out from the page before deleting the whole lot without bothering to see if they had any interesting content – we're down to simply scanning the headline there, and it's still taking hours. This is on a fast interface, with no delays…

If we expect x amount of things, we apply "the Scoble test" of x multiplied by 1,000. Yeah, Scoble's usage is the edge case, but if you can handle that edge case, you can be pretty sure you can handle anything else.
