Even if you weren't suffering from the 60 second delay, this change should improve the startup time of the web interface."
The uncommon fault is exactly what was happening on my hummy. No idea why it should start happening when nothing changed on my system. Happy days as back to normal now.

Now that I have upgraded to 3.13, all is working well (with no other changes to anything else). I have absolutely no idea what happened.
