Yep, having the same issue. The profile widget is ignoring the loop interval and appears to be using the example default of 30 seconds. Even if you reduce the time interval subsequent to grabbing the code, you’re stuck with 30 seconds. All of my client profile widgets have slowed to a crawl. On another post, one of the Twitter folks indicated that they’re playing around with default time intervals but that this would be resolved in “a few days”. I’m not certain who imagined that a 30-second interval would be a good idea under any circumstance.
