I couldn't draw a conclusion as to whether the BP scanner was causing delays or not. The doc clerk I had carefully examined everything (including my passport) with her blacklight, then scanned the boarding pass and carefully read the info on the screen. I estimate it took twice as long as normal, though the x-rays were backed up today.
Oh, and we were delayed by another 5 minutes even getting in to the airport thanks to a backup from the airport cops doing car searches on the entrance ramps.
