To update the view count real time slows the server down MASSIVELY, hence we made it so it records it in memory someplace and updates the database LATER. So such things are delayed, how long the delay depends on traffic. This is called the "Deferred Threadviews Function". I made a little bit of modifications to it to make it easier to administrate, but basically:
The more people that visit the boards, the sooner (more likely) an update will occur; however, after a certain number of people visiting the boards at the same time, the updates are frozen to save processing power. Then when the amount of people visiting the boards simultaniously drops, but at a relatively high rate, it will have a greater chance of updating again.
However, if it doesn't update after so long, it will commit an update anyways.
