It is incredible slow, and i also found out why now ... inspired by the last few mails on the list.
It turned out that ifhp used both waitend and polling. Polling added and additional 5*5 seconds to each job, waiting to be convinced that pagecount is stable. So by trusting my faith and the students print accounts i turned off polling in favor for waitend only. The grant fault on my side was believing the delay was "natural".
