ok... i've been able to figure out how long it takes based on the time
stamp... an hour and a half for a new object to have come in. It
appears that the item is not readable by the two templates, one of
which using {%for object in latest $} and then another template that
doesn't use it at all.

the code that reads the objects instantly is:

  {% for obj in recent_posts %}
                                        <li>
                                                <a href="/mysite/blog
{{ obj.get_absolute_url }}" title="Permanent Link to {{ obj.title}}">
{{ obj.title}}</a>
                                        </li>
                                {% endfor %}

which is getting the info from:

from django.template import Library, Node
from django.db.models import get_model

register = Library()

class LatestContentNode(Node):
    def __init__(self, model, num, varname):
        self.num, self.varname = num, varname
        self.model = get_model(*model.split('.'))

    def render(self, context):
        context[self.varname] = self.model._default_manager.filter
(status=1)[:self.num]
        return ''

def get_latest(parser, token):
    bits = token.contents.split()
    if len(bits) != 5:
        raise TemplateSyntaxError, "get_latest tag takes exactly four
arguments"
    if bits[3] != 'as':
        raise TemplateSyntaxError, "third argument to get_latest tag
must be 'as'"
    return LatestContentNode(bits[1], bits[2], bits[4])

get_latest = register.tag(get_latest)

an hour and a half is a bit much... i could deal with 5-10 minutes,
but at the same time, if the "Recent entries" list reads
immediately... so should the rest of the site
