>> When it  came to Shemoneh Esrei, it took the Rosh Yeshiva a long time to  
daven.?<<[--RYL]


>>He probably concentrates on his own tefilla to the extent that he  was not 
aware that others were waiting for him. And maybe it does some baale  batim 
good just once in a while to see a person take his time to say each and  every 
word with  care.<<[--TK]

===================================

>>What  does this say about R. Yisroel Salanter who hurried his Teffila so he 
wouldn't  be a Tircha 
D'Tzibura? <<

>>>>>
It says that R' Yisrael Salanter frequently  davened with bala batim and the 
Lakewood Rosh Yeshiva seldom does so.  
 
BTW how do you know he /didn't/ ask the sha'tz not to wait for him?   Maybe 
the sha'tz waited anyway out of kovod haTorah.  Maybe the tzibbur  considered 
it an honor to have the rosh yeshiva davening with them.
