Not worth the bad customer experience. Hope it gets fixed some time so we can re-install.

sharethis make my site load really slow, checking with firebug, sharethis use around 1,1mb requesting those little button, eventhough i set sharethis for only 6 major site, they still request ALL button to load.
Thanks for the tips btw, sorry for commenting old post

I do prefer Addthis and some important Feedburner’s Feedflare bookmarking sites because it appears at feed.

However, ThemeLab loads so much faster now.

I disabled Share This a couple of days ago and noticed an immediate improvement as well. Thanks. S Kirk, http://www.theperfectsense.com.
