>a single upvote invalidates however many thousand copies of a given page

I never understood this. Does reddit really need to spend the capital making sure I see a stranger's upvote the moment it occurs? A 60 second delay to refresh pages in batches seems perfectly reasonable. Perhaps with a client side script to mark my own upvotes so the system doesn't look like is losing my selections.
