They're probably ajax requests. I can only say that this application is very user-unfriendly :( Maybe you can talk with your (project) managers/developers about it in the perspective of a regular normal user who doesn't want to get beaten up while deciding how to spend his/ her limited time in the net. Just my opinion.
But if even user has to look at the status bar to know if anything is happening, well... Okay, but then you could do a little hack like this in pseudocode: fill field A and B with some control-value wait_until B.value.empty? now fill field B and C with some control-value wait_until C.value.empty? ...
