<flame> I think delicious is part of the new internet order. If you've got a slow link you've got a slow link. You're already relegated to slow everything else. I don't see why the people with fast links have to make any concessions to the slow people. I don't see anyone else complaining. Thousands of possible delicious users are at your site and no-one else is complaining.
In fact, you could take it up with their management, why don't they upgrade their link and allow all their users to experience the wonders of Web 2.0. I mean, slow delicious means they're probably not enjoying the world of blogs or all that live content that all the telcos are trying to sell us. </flame> If you're visiting people on site, why don't you keep a local a copy of your bookmarks and upload the differences when you get back home. Do what you did before del.icio.us became a part of your life. 2c, Francis > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sean > Sent: Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:21 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [delicious-discuss] Feature Request/Suggestion > > Unfortunately, I'm not on a mac... > > I have been logging the response times of the posting form over the > last couple of days. > > >From home (good connection) it averages out around 2.2 seconds. > > I'm on site today (Large govt. client, 1000's users) and the response > is averaging around 15secs... which is unusable. > > Perhaps if the email suggestion is no good, Joshua and the team could > come up with a lightweight posting solution. > > Clearly the official posting interface is very heavy with both > javascript and css that could well be optimised (i.e refactoring, > removing old/redundant code and supplying a slim, post specific css > file rather than the fat 1 that is used site wide) > > Maybe the users tags could be cached somehow and perhaps the tag > suggestions and popular tags could be optionally turned off per user. > > Sean > > On 4/10/06, Justin R.
