I love this script but can't run it due to the lag that it imposes when running the Hatchlings application. When you click on a persons' name to go to their basket, it lags for 2-3 second before you can scroll down the page. I'm sorry I can't give more detail than that and know that it will be difficult to troubleshot. Perhaps the best way would be for you to go into Hatchlings and run it to experience what I mean.

Hi wolfgrrl, most issues where the script slows down your browser are due to a large number of changes happening on the page. The script has to constantly listen for page changes to be compatible with the new Facebook, so that causes the slowdown.
Once you're using the latest version of the script, you can press L (capital l) to temporarily stop the script from listening for changes, and therefore stop the slowdowns. This will prevent some features from working, but mostly features that would not run on the application pages anyway (the only feature you will noticeably lose is the 'error page reloading' feature). Just remember to press L again before leaving the Hatchlings pages and going to non-app pages.
If that doesn't work for you please let me know. Another solution would be to add an exception URL so that the script never runs on Hatchlings pages. I can help you do that if you copy and paste the address of any Hatchlings page here. That approach would make you lose all script features on Hatchlings pages though.
