How to know if a table is NOT loaded

[mark_talluto]

I have not forgotten about this thread. Still working on an answer.

I fixed the cdb_node() bug. The longer answer to improving performance when you are not geographically near a region is a challenging problem. We have some ideas on how we can bring data closer to you and your customers. For now, lets call this 'Region Extenders'. We are in the early phase of working on this. We are not sure this will work. We can not say for sure if we will release this. But, I think there is a need to work on making data as accessible as possible.
