Why do we expect CIO to speed up? Since there are always a load of people applying and since they will all be evaluated under the fast-track rule, should we not expect CIO to slow down in the long run? Many of those who applied before the 38 categories were published are still waiting and waiting. Their queue is hardly being cleared up because there will always be new people applying. I am sure the rate at which people are applying is far greater than the rate at which CIO is capable of even saying "no" to the applicants. So, naturally new applications are always getting queued up. No?
