Hi,
 
It is highly variable.  Sometimes if you refresh the translations, the changes 
you posted will post within a few minutes.  However, sometimes it literally 
takes days.  (No kidding.)  You can try it yourself.  At the other end of the 
spectrum sometimes it doesn't take minutes, but will come up immediately.
 
With Babel Fish, on the other hand, the changes in the translation are 
available the instant you make them -- after you refresh the translation, of 
course.
 
It appears that Google must be somehow saving the page locally on the computer 
where they are doing the translation, and not allowing the base page to refresh 
much of the time.  I really don't understand what is going on to cause the 
intermittent nature of the problem -- you would think it would always be one 
way or the other, but it isn't.
 
If you have any sort of a page that updates things in a timely manner, the way 
Google does things just does what you want in.  I'm not talking about truly 
dynamic Web pages either -- merely ones, like Yahoo, for example, -- that 
change throughout the day to reflect current news, for example.
 
Thanks for the interest.  I REALLY hope Google will fix this.
 
Best regards,
