Client bottlenecks... ~Naomi Deskroterakol 28.Mar.03 08:58 PM a Web browser iNotes Web Access 6.0.1Windows 2000
I don't know why people have the expectation that the iNotes interface is going to perform reasonable on low-end hardware. iNotes is a HUGE DOM application, with an enormous amount of DHTML embedded in it. JavaScript is interpretted by the client, and all that graphics work happens on the local machine.
There is some bandwidth intensity, but the caching options mentioned elsewhere take care of that. The fact is that IE6 is a hog of a browser, and on a 333MhZ, machine, it's just not going to draw particularly fast, especially under NT4.
iNotes isn't a thin client app. It's a ubiquitous client app. Big difference. There's no reason to expect it to run on lesser hardware. If you think about the efficiency of native C code vs. interpretted Javascript, this really shouldn't be a surprise.
