Is there anything I can do to make my watch run a few seconds fast/slow each day?

Rolex Frequently Asked Questions... QualityTyme.net
If your watch is off a few seconds per day (fast or slow) you can regulate it depending on the position you leave the watch at night when you're not wearing it, as follows: By leaving the watch's dial (or face) up can cause it to gain (or run fast) upto a few seconds per day. On the other hand, by leaving the watch's dial (or face) down can cause it to lose (or run slow) upto a few seconds per day.

My new Seamaster Pro automatic is running a few seconds fast/slow; what should I do?

Omega FAQ - TimeZone
Relax. Like most mechanical devices, a new watch has a break-in period that lasts for about a month or so. During this time, your watch is distributing the oil around, and is breaking in its gears. Its accuracy will vary by a few seconds during this time, but it will eventually settle down. The C.O.S.C. standard is +6/-4 seconds a day. If it's running way over that, return your watch. There are a number of TZ Classic Articles on C.O.S.C.

Will I be 'too slow' or 'too fast'?

LoT - FAQ
Speed is not necessarily an issue. Of course an overly slow driver can cause a nuisance, which is why we select sessions partly on the grounds of peoples prior experience, type of vehicle and where they will feel most comfortable. If sessions are clearly not working out: we change them. We strive to provide a comfortable situation for newcomers and experience drivers alike. Any driver not being "considerate" to others will be removed from the track immediately.

How can the CarterCopter fly so fast and efficiently? Shouldn't the rotor slow it down?

CarterCopter FAQ on CarterAviationTechnologies.com
The CarterCopter is a hybrid between an airplane and a rotorcraft. A rotor is a very efficient device for providing lift at low speeds, but its drag increases rapidly as the aircraft goes faster if it must continue to support the aircraft. In the CarterCopter, as the aircraft speeds up and the wings begin producing more of the lift, the rotor produces less lift and can slow down given the correct control input.

When I watch a presentation, it buffers during the first 10 seconds?

IQue FAQs - The Intelligent Way to Communicate
Before the video is streamed, IQue's Dynamic Bit Rate, automatically asks your computer, "What is the speed of your Internet connection?" Your computer sends IQue's servers the speed at which it thinks it is connected. HOWEVER, if you are connected through an in-house network (Intranet) or an Internet connection speed that is dependent on other users, i.e. Cable Modem, then your computer does not really know the true speed at which it is connect.

What if you run out the same day, can you make another cup?

DrLuc
You could but you shouldn’t need to, because as you start to feel better you slow down and take a teaspoon only maybe every hour or two. If you don’t see any improvement by the time you finish the cup, it probably means you have the wrong remedy. (It could also mean the potency is too low, but this is something you will learn from experience.) If one is not improving, it is a good to consult a homeopath.

edit] MediaWiki is slow, how can I make it faster?

MediaWiki FAQ - Meta
First you should try a PHP cache engine such as eAccelerator or APC. It will save the parsed PHP scripts and enhance performance a lot (this is something you should use anyway on any PHP installation with non-trivial traffic). Zend Platform also contains a bytecode cache, however its "dynamic content caching" is not supported in MediaWiki at the current time. Memcached will provide some performance benefit, especially for heavily viewed sites.

What is the difference between slow and fast searching?

Swatbooks FAQ
Prices on marketplace sites like Half.com fluctuate too much to keep a reliable database on our server.

What if these tracks are too fast or too slow for me?

FAQs
These works are recorded at tempos that I consider a suitable compromise for most performers. Many of the works in the catalogue I have played before in concert so I know how they should sound, and for those works I haven't previously played I have listened to different CD recordings in order to ascertain a satisfactory tempo for my tracks. For many of the more difficult works, I provide slower practice versions that are provided free with the full speed track.
