Over 30 minutes for a single confirmation does not (and will not ever) work in the real world.
(Almost) Every time I start to believe that BTC is "going mainstream", I have a delay waiting for a 30+ minute block.... Shocked

Gavin should just fork Bitcoin and fix this problem. That's what Satoshi would have done by now.

I don't think so. Satoshi was the one who specified the 10 minute target per block.

Yes. The block target interval was suitable then. But let's face it, Bitcoin is a different beast now.

It is still the same beast. Only older, very unstable and predictable.
