Changes to issues result in new noticeable delays for the web page to update. #29

See discussion at https://discuss.python.org/t/bugs-python-org-slowing-down/850/. My guess is that something changed when the server was moved. If you bring up the #python-dev IRC channels, the updates there appear much faster than on the web browser. This didn't used to be the case and the delay is long enough to be annoying.

This appears to be related to the speed of sending emails over SMTP.

Previously there was a local postfix instance handling outbound emails, so connection/submission/confirmation for each email to send was minimal. On an issue that will notify N participants, the request will take O(N) longer than before to send all the emails.

I’ll look into configuring the postfix that’s configured for inbound currently to act as a proxy for outbound.

Confirmed and have a working solution. Will implement it this evening.

This is resolved. I thought I had a meeting that I don't have :)
