There are disadvantages for both. Respecting his delay avoid to prematurely spoil the game. But for difficult problems it's sometime nice to see other's attempts to progress toward a solution. I would say that a 2-3 day delay is fine, it's not excessive, and we can still have the opportunity to share partial results towards a complete solution. Actually, this is what happened here, Fernando and Werner identified the 'tiny area', Albert and I gave the correct 12-digit result (by different ways) of the main area, and I finally merged everything together. Also, we should keep in mind that if some of us are can afford to spent a lot of time on a problem each day, it's not necessary the case for everybody.
