No. I'm complaining that no matter how many times I reset my password, JIRA wouldn't remember it. I wasn't mis-typing it: I use KeePass to manage the password and do a drag-and-drop password entry for both changing my password and for authenticating. JIRA just choked all the time. Maybe it was a password-length restriction (which is kind of foolish these days) or some other thing where the password I entered when changing it wasn't the one recorded -- or alternatively that the password I used for authentication wasn't processed in the same way, which is essentially the same thing: fail. >> Also, simple things >> like commenting and changing bug information was awkward compared to >> Bugzilla. > > Oh well, I notice that you are a Bugzilla fan, and I am a Bugzilla > hater, I can say the exact thing swapping the terms of comparison. Fair enough: I should complain directly to the JIRA folks that having to scroll to the top of the page to click the "COMMENT" link just to go back down to the bottom to attach a comment is kind of silly. >> Now, I've only logged-in and seen the front page and already I'm not >> liking it: the page was blank except for empty titled-sections (with >> empty titles!) and then everything filled-in slowly over a period of >> about 10 seconds.

JIRA is painfully slow on any hardware I've used. I don't know if it's the server's fault, JIRA's fault, or Java's fault. I just know that my browser accessing Java-based webapps on my productions servers are nice and snappy and that JIRA has always been slow as a dog. Since all the Javascript has been added, the page load time is faster (the blank page loads with nothing but JIRA chrome somewhat quickly) but then you have to sit twiddling your thumbs for all the content to arrive after the fact. -chris
