Latest review

First review round: 52.1 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
The first comment about some technical improvement and graphs re-arranging was very quick so it gave positive feeling, but then the review process took forever, and it took two letters to the editor to receive he first review decision which was followed by two more. Overall time till acceptance was approximately 1.5 years and additional I think 3 months time till on-line publication, which was too long. The reviews on the other side were very correct, constructive and helpful.
