heh interesting. i wonder how long it takes for this work. when i
helped run one of the largest independent RTB exchanges our SLA from
time to impression, auction and returning a shitty banner ad was
~150ms total - i guess it could be cached client side in some sort
of user-storage bucked in the browser but that would seem to defeat
the intent of this.<br>

i think the only safe way to win this game is to not play :)<br>
