Is it not the dealer's job to uphold the rules of the game, which includes calling string bets? As for counting all-in bets, I know they're supposed to wait until the opponent asks to give the account, and sometimes they announce the bet size prematurely, but in the 5/10 game, that's typically what people want and it moves the game along faster.
And at least if they stack the chips and count the number without saying anything, then they're ready to give the answer as soon as someone asks. So it's not, bet, tank a minute, how much?, wait another 30 seconds, answer, tank some more, etc.
