It is very difficult to judge this dealer by your description. What you have described to us is a dealer who is engaged in the game and is actively making sure the table knows where action is. This is usually highly desireable. I can also see how it could be done in an obnoxious fashion.
On one hand, I assume that you have played live poker before, so you have seen enough range of dealers to know when one is out of line. On the other hand, the dealer didn't seem to annoy anyone else, so maybe it was just you.
If a dealer points to me, or says 'action is on you' and I need a second, I will acknowledge the dealer or ask for a second, or just act if it is a snap decision.
Was the dealer doing this to everyone or just you? Were you or any of the other players distracted (watching TV, on your phone) and slowing the game without realizing it?
