Slow...? You try working all day with a hurt back that screams at you all freakin' day! I basically agree it is a orb weaver however, with the visual information supplied by the image, I will not render an ID due to too few points of detail to aid me in my decision.

Here is the bug guide page for Marble Orb Weavers: [link]

Well, if you gave us a full doral shot witha clear view of the abdomen that would have helped...just a bit.
