Comment on Hacker News: Unknown or Expired Link

I've wondered at times if PG isn't deliberately leaving this problem in place so that people who get annoyed by it are filtered out as users of the web site.

Since you know about the implementation(I haven't looked closely), won't it need a complete overhaul to take closures out of equation? Or implement some sort of closure serialization(on-disk maybe)? Is there a third option where pg just bangs at the keyboard for a couple of hours, and done?

Just a home link or a page with the banner would be nice, so you don't have to faff about with your browser to get back to the homepage.
