I also experienced extremely long UI delays when trying to change the
language. I think it was a full minute. It really feels like the
buttons are not working at all. (t.b - ditto)
The question details / resolution criteria / background info load async and can take quite a while, which degrades the experience a bit. I bet this is mostly because the beta server might be on limited resources. But I thought I'd note it here anyway: assuming a faster prod deploy, it still could be frustrating on mobile, on a poor network, etc. If those could load synchronously that'd be much nicer! [I think @lsabor said it's not a problem of async loading nor resources but this is what draaglom said - reported at 5:35 PM Eastern Sep 3]
Every new page load (question pages, tournament pages…) was slow for me. Also specific actions such as Following/Unfollowing a question took far longer than before. If before it was around a second per load/action, now it was even 3-5 seconds at times… roughly. (user: Zaldath - they had said 2 or 3 times slower - reported at 5:44 PM Eastern Sep 9) Note: at 11:30 AM Eastern Sep 10 they said they tested it again and everything seemed to work considerably faster :shrug:
"The site feels slower overall." (skmmcj at Sep 9 9:30 PM Eastern)
Under stress testing the dev env performs well when resources == prod (i.e. the beta. domain)
We should make sure our database is large enough
Current issues look to be quite random and often have to do with data that's already loaded, so I think @ncarazon we should make sure there are no situations in which our next frontend might arbitrarily freeze
