Contention problems during exhibit initialization #5

Closed distobj closed 12 years ago

distobj commented 13 years ago

If an exhibit is loaded from two separate browser tabs at approximately the same time, where initialization of the exhibit in the backstage server has not yet occurred or completed, one or both of the browsers will usually receive incomplete information for one or more of the queries via the JSONP interface. This has manifested as an empty facet, an empty lens view, or a combination.

I will keep this up to date as I learn more.

Since switching to the new Butterfly, I haven't noticed this problem. Closing this issue until such time as it reappears.
