Aborted
The code seems to have no qualms about launching two (or more?) GET requests at
the same time, in other words searching for "Wiki" and "Wikip" at the same
time. This can't be good for performance. And most of the requests seem to time
out, I suppose this is because the server is overloaded because the server-side
code needs some optimizing? In any case, right now it's impossible for me to
add "is a" + "Wikipedia disambuguation" to an item, because all the GET
requests (beyond searching for the single letter "W") time out. I had the same
problem yesterday, so it seems like a chronic problem. - Soulkeeper (talk)

To reproduce, go to Q1176386. Select interface "Norsk (bokmål)". Click "Legg
til" (add) under "Utsagn" (Statements). Type "er" (is a). When the other
(value?) field shows up, try to save it as "Wikipedia-pekerside". It's next to
impossible, because the ajax calls tend to be aborted before they return
anything. - Soulkeeper (talk) 11:09, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

I can reproduce this also with language set to English.
