Hi there,

I have noticed that, while the website's performance is in general quite good, posting new comments takes very long (over a minute). Previewing the message is quick and I haven't had errors while posting so far, it's just slow.

I'm using FF 9.01, posting in the "Python Programming" course.

cheers,
^dj

    I just noticed that the post is actually sent quite quickly: if I open the forum in a new window just after sending a new message (while the message window is still showing the "Post comment" or "Reply" page), the message already appears in the thread. My guess is that there is something after the "post" action that keeps the forum page from loading, even though the message has actually been sent.

    Thanks for reporting this issue DJ. I'm going to pass it along to our developer to have a look at what might be causing the slowness.

    Cheers,

    I will look into it (guessing it is the ~ 411 + 46 notifications), there are probably some performance improvements we can do. Thanks for the report.

    Hi,

    The page load time for posting comments should have improved considerably. Please test it and let me know if it works ok.

    Thanks.
