Thanks for the link, Jim. I am reading through the article now. The first seriously GLARING problem I see is that "It seems they forgot to merge CSS and JS files together as they are currently loading about 55! Individual JavaScripts files and 11! Individual CSS files!" I don't know the exact value of 55! (55 factorial), but I bet it is larger than the entire universe. And 11! is bad enough. That's a seriously large number of files to load for every transaction of the registration page. This one quote from Compuware's expert, or perhaps from Networkworld's editors and/or proofreaders, is a good reason to suspect that no one, and not just the government, knows what he is doing or talking about regarding this website.

Much thanks to Compuware using some of its Application Performance Monitoring tools to uncover certain things. It is worth it to click on the gentleman's Blog for more detail. Of course this is only the Internet facing portion and even if fixed for added speed, never know if the back-end processing will do as advertised.
