    I can't imagine they'd force a login to a different domain between HITs though, so something makes me think my method is safe from this.

    I'm going to continue to work out of WWW for as long as possible, because it loads pennies faster.

    I'm going to assume you always work from a decent desktop, and I know for certain that your Internet connection is overkill.

    Any good step by step info on this I think I may have tried it before and got frustrated with it. Anyone can help me with a preferred list of Pandas to add to it would be great. I just need to get out of this 10 - 20 a day range and boost it up.

    When I'm at McDonald's on my netbook and pennies pop while I'm watching a video or something, the difference in load time between Worker and WWW is pretty significant. It's not subtle at all.

    www bottlenecks at another point though if you have a fast enough computer and internet connection. The difference isn't huge but it is just barely noticeable that worker is faster.

    This transition period is more annoying than the fact that they're killing www.

    Worker just made a liar out of me.
    I just got redirected from www to the next unopened HIT in my queue on worker after a submit. Which is what I wanted it to do. Yay?

    Being unpredictable and erratic makes it hard for me to get into a workflow.
    I can't wait for the changeover to just be complete already.

    fuck off amazon payments. Did you seriously take that underpaid 40 cent batch and repost it for 5 cents?

    I'm fairly certain that Worker render-blocks the page until all or most of the resources are 100% loaded, which seems to be the issue.

    WWW works better for slower bandwidth (since it was created in an era of slower bandwidth) and just displays things as it goes. It's much more lightweight, and low-TDP devices really prefer WWW.
