I don't know about anyone else, but I prefer to download one large page than two smaller ones, at least up to a point.
Especially as, very often when browsing the "new posts" page there are only a couple of posts on the last page.
I know the number of posts displayed on a page must be adjustable, considering the variety I have experienced on various fora, but are the settings only adjustable at the server end? Or can I do anything at mine?
If (as I suspect) it is only at the server end, can I request that the pages are lengthened a bit?
Or at least a wee survey to see what anyone else prefers.

Me too. And that goes for width too, when someone puts in a looooooong link in a post.

I might be wrong but after the last server change was not some of the problems related to page length and, as a consequence, they were made a bit shorter.
