Market slow after 2.1 upgrade

Everything has declined on my droid since the update. The market is very slow for me too also it wont show the download progress unless I touch the screen and it will jump to where it is at the time and I have tpo keep touching it to get to it to show. My reception has bit the dust, Pandora is very particular about working, my gallery playing videos renders the phone useless ad freezes and requires a battery pull. I had to do EIGHT battery pulls in five minutes to get it to fully function again. I did 0 before the update.

There's been lots of market issues in the last few weeks, I've been reading about them on the google help sites for Android and seen references on other sites too. Nobody seems to know of a definite fix.

Some have suggested try stopping the market application using a task manager, or going into Settings-Applications-Manage Apps- and clearing the cache and updates. That seems to work temporarily but nothing long term yet. The market acts up for me daily to one degree or another. It's quite annoying to say the least.
