I agree, at some pools it is illogical the way they give so much space to walkers, and just a few lanes for lap swimmers. I've been at the pool when there are 3 or 4 people waiting to lap swim, and you have 2 people walking in the section cordoned off for walkers - they easily could have put in a couple more lanes to accommodate everyone. It is especially aggravating when you have someone walking in a lap lane - they should be over in the walkers part of the pool, so serious swimmers have a place to swim.
