High-latency scenarios are not well supported at the moment.

Some ideas:

[ ] Add a COSR_ADDLATENCY environment variable to automatically add (random?) server-side latency. Would be helpful to test locally.
[ ] Add a loading indicator after N ms waiting for a result
[ ] Throttle ajax request better
[ ] Make sure ajax responses are ignored if they arrive out-of-order
